Hasn't added to Currah 2yo maiden win but some good efforts in smart company, notably Queens Vase fourth and second behind Al Riffa in Group 2 Curragh Cup (1m6f, good); stamina test of 2m1f Irish Cesarewitch seemed beyond him last time and now takes a marked drop in trip.

Third of three for yard and Lordan rides; not beaten far behind Carmers in the Queens Vase at Royal Ascot in June; good second behind Al Riffa in the Curragh Cup (1m6f, good) on penultimate; weakened over 2m latest; stamina a query on handicap debut.

Sole win (eight races) remains a 2yo maiden; Group assignments all five starts since, his most competitive displays when a close, front-running fourth in Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot and second of five in another 1m6f Group 2 at the Curragh last time; may well stay 2m but had no answer to the Curragh winner and needs big improvement from today's new trip and/or first-time headgear.

3yo gets a nice chunk of weight from his older rivals and is preferred by Ryan Moore; won his maiden over 1m1f here last year but has so far come up short in stakes' company; not beaten far when fourth in the Queen's Vase at Ascot but came up short in the Irish Derby; place chance on the figures and the step back up to 1m6f is a plus but more needed to win.

Course maiden winner over 1m1f on good ground on third start last year; could manage only third when favourite for the Zetland Stakes last October and again a beaten favourite on seasonal debut in the Gallinule Stakes; limitations confirmed by his fourth placing behind fellow Irish raider Carmers in the Queen's Vase.
