Form & Verdict
Cost 200,000gns at the Craven Breeze-Up; he got no run in the straight when fourth over C&D on debut, finishing 4l behind the reopposing Scorthy Champ; didn't need to improve when winning at the Curragh (7f, good) in June (had Swagman behind) and he should run a solid race again.

Beat Delacroix in last year's Futurity at Doncaster; has failed to make a major impact this season, including behind Delacroix in the Eclipse; did not have much luck in running before staying on late in the Saratoga Derby six weeks ago; up against it.

Very productive 2yo campaign culminated in narrow defeat of Delacroix, pair clear, in soft-ground Group 1 Futurity; respectable third in the Irish 2,000 Guineas (good) kept to 1m on reappearance; smart colt but there are mixed messages in his pedigree with regard to this new trip.

Second to Henri Matisse in last year's Futurity at this track but stepped up on that effort when winning the Beresford over C&D (good to yielding) and the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster (1m, soft) when seeing off Delacroix (2-2 since) by a nose; clearly very talented and handles any ground but will need to be sharp on return tackling race-fit rivals.

Sent off at odds of 20-1, he stayed on powerfully in the closing stages when winning at the Curragh on debut (6f, good); has plenty of stamina in the pedigree and the stable is among the winners of late; needs to take another step forward now but he looks above-average.

Surprise debut winner of 6f maiden here last summer but bit exposed in stakes company afterwards, each time staying on as if a step up in trip will suit (not clear run at Dundalk final start); gelded over the winter and step up in trip should suit but others may have greater scope for improvement.

Met trouble in running when third at Gowran Park (7f, good) on debut; was narrowly denied in a thrilling photo-finish when third behind Swagman at Naas (7f, good) this month; he's well worth his place in the lineup but doesn't have the same scope for improvement as some of his rivals.

Twice finished third at two and missed all of last year; first two runs this term were good, including fifth in decent handicap at Cork; in first-time blinkers, was no match for a patiently-ridden winner after trying to make all at Ballinrobe; first go on Polytrack and related to AW winners.

Rated 85; has returned from mammoth layoff with encouraging runs in a Gowran maiden (Cracking Cloud a nose behind) and in a handicap at Cork (10.5f, gd-yld); should be thereabouts returned to maiden company in first-time blinkers.

Lightly raced maiden shaped well initially in 2yo maidens; missed his entire 3yo campaign and reappeared to chase home a clear winner in 9.5f Gowran maiden; entitled to come on for that although needs to in order to justify this rating on handicap debut.
