Ex-Richard Fahey; won a Hamilton maiden on debut last season (6f, good to firm); has been mainly disappointing since, including on both starts for this yard (pulled up over hurdles on first occasion); plenty to prove.

Form & Verdict
The Chester maiden (6f, good) in which he finished seventh on debut looks considerably better now than it did at the time and he went down by a nose at Leicester on his second start five weeks ago (5f, good to soft); holds a Group 1 entry and he sets the standard with further progress likely; high on the list.

Off the mark for James Owen at the 14th attempt when leading late on in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; returning to 7f no problem but a 4lb higher mark in a higher grade does ask more of him.

Plenty of near-misses to go with his only win, which came over 7.2f here off a 7lb higher mark last autumn; latest effort can be ignored but the emphasis will be more on speed, running in a sprint for the first time in a while.

Flourished when switched to heavy and soft ground last autumn, winning over 6f and 7f; retains ability as a 3yo but he might have run better at Ayr last month when back on soft ground (first-time visor now discarded) and hard to depend on a turnaround.

Likes testing ground as he showed when winning nurseries at Hamilton (6f, heavy) and Haydock (7f, soft) a year ago; has run with credit a couple of times in a light campaign this year, but still 4lb above his last winning mark; probably needs the new visor to make a difference.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred colt who was sent off at 22-1 for his Wolverhampton debut (7f) 12 days ago; dropped away having dictated a steady pace on that occasion but he's open to improvement and the Johnston yard have won five of the last eight runnings of this race; could take a big step forward.
