Form & Verdict
Placed in three of his four runs in maidens last season, at 1m and a little further; boasts form linked to a couple of useful Ballydoyle juveniles; found 6f inadequate in the Birdcatcher Nursery; has been gelded and is now blinkered for the first time; should handle the ground and holds a leading chance.
