Progressive at two, winning a big sales race at Doncaster before far too good for 15 rivals in the Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar; impressed at Ascot on last season's reappearance (Group 3; 6f, good) and ended his 3yo campaign with a solid fourth in a Deauville Group 1; this is his AW debut but his dam won at the track and there's no obvious reason he wouldn't be effective on it; one of two runners for Karl Burke.

Well treated on his 2024 form; low-key stable debut here three weeks ago and he arrives with a point to prove.
