Probably did not achieve a great deal when well-held third in race won easily by 1-6 favourite at Lingfield (1m4f) last month, and needs that outing to have brought him on a fair bit.

Dual winner for Ian Williams; sold for 20,000gns last October; third to Poet's Dawn over C&D (stable debut) early last month and runner-up to a progressive rival over 1m here subsequently; highly likely to make presence felt.

Successful over 1m2f at Newbury (good to firm) off this mark for Ian Williams last summer; creditable start for new yard after nine months off (had wind surgery) when third of five over 1m2f here (good) 12 days ago; entitled to build on that but 9.4f at Wolverhampton is the shortest trip he's tackled prior to this.

Bettered low-key debut when third at Southwell (1m) last month and was not discredited when well-held fourth in race won by a very useful one there a fortnight ago; back in calmer waters here and should be fine over the longer trip; good chance.

Went handicapping off a high mark after two good runs in AW maiden and novice events; on this career-low mark for last two starts at Wolverhampton (about 1m) and involved in a tight finish there last week; not far away.

0-14, but appears to have reached a mark he can win from judging by his second of nine behind a subsequent winner over C&D six weeks ago; a player if building on that.

Form & Verdict
0-6 for Richard Hannon but signed off for him with pretty good handicap third at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) in June and will be a tough nut to crack if somewhere near that form on today's stable debut; changed hands for 10,000gns and was gelded in August.

Held up; ran creditably sole start here (2024); latest of his two wins came when dropped into Class 6 at Bath (1m2f, firm) in May, before a Class 4 at Yarmouth saw a lesser effort; should be competitive in this race.
