Ex-Ballydoyle; won a Listed race at Lingfield last year; purchased for 78,000gns in October but has been soundly beaten in two starts over hurdles and two Flat races for new yard; needs to improve.

Ex-Ballydoyle; won Lingfield Derby Trial last year but well held in Irish Derby and Irish St Leger; bought for 78,000gns and has been soundly beaten in two hurdle races and a Curragh Listed contest for new yard; top rated of these, but others bring more compelling recent form.

3yo represents stable that has won this nine times, including last year; built on promise of reappearance effort behind Delacroix when winning the Derby Trial at Lingfield (11.5f, gd-fm); off since below par effort in the Irish Derby; gets weight from his older rivals but needs to prove stamina for this trip (mixed messages in pedigree); obvious chance if he stays.

9/4
