Failed to go on after looking smart on his Ascot debut but he steadied the ship when hooded for the first time and edging home in a 1m2f handicap at Sandown (good to soft) in August; returns off a 4lb higher mark but now has to follow one good run with another.

Looked promising when winning on Ascot debut (7f, good to firm) last summer but well held at Group 3 level in two subsequent outings at two and has fared no better in a pair of handicaps this year; pulled hard when stepped up to 1m2f last time and now sports a first-time hood; questions to answer at present.

Highly tried and struggled last season after winning well on his Ascot debut; gelded ahead of reappearance and again finished down the field, albeit in a strong handicap at Haydock (1m, good to firm); bit to prove now.
