Landed a Group 3 at Kempton last September as a juvenile before finishing fourth in the Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket, both over 6f; highly tried without success this term and although his yard is going great guns, his mark looks high at present.

Useful colt whose 2yo form featured a success in AW Group 3 and fourth in the Middle Park, both over 6f; proved resurgent in 7f Listed contest at Chester most recently, making the frame; however, has something to find on ratings upped further in distance.

J: Jason Watson

T: Andrew Balding

Won 6f Group 3 on AW last September and fourth in Group 1 Middle Park at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) three weeks later; that rounded off his 2yo campaign but he's been regressive in three runs this season and was down the field in a York handicap last time; has some questions to answer and he's untried at this trip.

Won 6f AW Group 3 last September and fourth in Group 1 Middle Park at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) three weeks later; below best in Group races on both starts this year but wasn't devoid of promise at Newmarket, and Haydock last time was a first run on slow ground; not discounted on handicap debut.

AW Group 3 winner last September and bettered that form when 2.75l fourth to Wise Approach (Brussels second, Coppull third) in Group 1 Middle Park at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) later that month; late headway for seventh of 14 in 5f Group 3 back at Newmarket on reappearance; likely to benefit from the return to 6f but whether he's quite good enough remains to be seen.
