Looked a good prospect last spring, running well on debut and then readily accounting for a rival now BHA-rated 103 at Chester on his second start; beaten at odds-on on final 2yo outing (7f, good to firm) and he was again disappointing on fast ground at Newmarket on his belated reappearance 11 days ago; that initial promise not yet forgotten and a switch to AW could revive his fortunes.
