J: Jason Watson

T: Hugo Palmer

Couldn't justify favouritism on debut and bumped into the subsequent 2,000 Guineas winner next time, but made no mistake at Thirsk (1m, good) in August; flopped when favourite for five-runner nursery at Newcastle (1m, AW) in October but gelded since; sire gets plenty who stay; not dismissed.

Couldn't justify favouritism at Haydock on debut (7f, good) but shaped well in third; second to Royal Lodge winner in a hot Newbury maiden (1m, good) next time and he made no mistake at Thirsk a fortnight later (1m, good; form worked out well); open to further progress and could have been let into nurseries lightly.

No match for an impressive winner but still stepped up a little on his debut when second of seven over 1m at Newbury (good) a fortnight ago; likely to go well again.

J: Hollie Doyle

Sent off favourite when third of seven on debut at Haydock (7f, good) four weeks ago; this 65,000euros half-brother to two winners is open to improvement and could put his experience to good use.

By smart French 7f/1m performer Galiway: 65,000euros yearling; third foal; half-brother to two winners at up to 7.5f; dam French 6f 2yo/US 5f winner; interesting newcomer
