Form & Verdict
Showed promise over 7f on first two AW starts, including here; making waves in 6f turf events since, easily winning both Doncaster runs, and expending the minimum effort in July (third a good Newmarket winner since); up 6lb but is anything but exposed; holds a Champions Sprint entry.

Very useful 6f AW scorer at his best; not so good nowadays but signed off for James Fanshawe with a fair third of six in 7f Wolverhampton handicap in April; more is required for new stable on a rare turf start.
