Form & Verdict
Well down the field in three 7f novice/maiden races at Chelmsford this spring but was gelded during subsequent two-month break and now makes his handicap debut over a trip more in keeping with his pedigree; likely to get much closer to the target this time.

Major improver with four middle-distance wins for Sir Mark Prescott (three on AW) since June; tailed off at Epsom on final run for that trainer but was reported to have had an irregular heartbeat and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; changed hands for 20,000gns in October and needs watching in the market on stable debut.

Has a very mixed record on the Flat and over hurdles since his 1m4f Kempton win last November but his keeping-on fourth here (1m) in early June was a fairly good effort and he competes off a career-low mark today.

Persistently denied clear run before finishing well for second over C&D in first-time visor in June; looks very interesting if judged on that performance and can be forgiven subsequent turf defeat (from out of the weights in higher-grade company) but it's hard to ignore his 0-30 strike-rate.
