Son of Havana Gold who has made perfect start to career with wins at Chepstow (6f, good) in June and Newmarket (6f, good to firm; led over 1f out and beat a subsequent winner in clearcut style) in July; meets sterner opposition here but he's hard to pin down and could complete a hat-trick.

All wins at 5f, one of them here at last year's Dante meeting, and he's on the same mark as when making a successful return at Yarmouth in April (5f, good to firm); best produced late off a strong pace at 5f though and his 6f form is unconvincing.

Hit the ground running with 5f wins at Ayr (good) and Kempton (AW) early in the season but has been disappointing of late, finishing behind three of today's rivals at Goodwood last time; on the back burner for now.

Seemed to be getting the hang of things when second in a Carlisle novice (5f, soft) on debut but hasn't come close to repeating the form twice since, gelded before eighth of 11 at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) last time; perhaps he'll do better now tackling nurseries.
