All three runs on the AW; unbeaten in novices (6f/5f) but was noticeably weak in the market ahead of handicap debut at Lingfield (5f) and never threatened; bit to prove on the back of that.

Won a 6f novice at Wolverhampton on debut (4-9 favourite) and followed up at even shorter odds over C&D in November; unimpressive against modest opponents on that occasion but as an unbeaten, well-related 4yo from a powerful stable, it's highly likely he's capable of further progress.

Both outings on AW, better effort when just over 2l third to Maid In Chelsea at Wolverhampton dropped to 5f latest (tongue-tie applied; started favourite); gets a 7lb pull with that rival and has a fighting chance.

Brother to 5f/6f winner Bluebells Boy (including AW; RPR 71), half-brother to 6f-1m AW winner Roman Spinner (85); dam 7f AW 2yo winner (84); enough paper appeal to warrant a market check on his belated debut.
