Placed in four of his five starts including a near miss in a Catterick maiden (7f, good to firm) two weeks ago; was odds-on in that race but he finished well for a clear second and has strong claims on his step up to this trip.

Form & Verdict
Well-held fourth at single-figure odds in both his starts last month, most recently in a 7f Thirsk novice (7f, good); needs to raise his game with cheekpieces added at this new trip but it is still very early days and he's a half-brother to lots of winners at up to 1m2f; respected for top yard.
