Half-brother to three winners for his connections, including Group 2 winner Powerful Breeze; duly made a promising debut at Ayr (1m, good) where he kept on for second behind a colt who had performed well in the Convivial Maiden on his first start; the clear pick of the runners with experience.

Just one win from his 21 starts but he's been a creditable third on two of his three starts this season, most recently at Chepstow (7f, good); he's probably fine on good to soft; in the mix if he's on another going day.
