Well beaten at Goodwood but with his sights lowered he made the frame at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm); that form is easily the best on offer here and has been gelded since.

Turf novice winner last October; quiet return but fared better when sixth of 16 in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) at Newbury (1m, good) 24 days ago and the winner has gone in again since; down another 1lb and worth a second look.

Sole win from 23 starts came at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in July 2023 for his previous yard; mostly struggled since joining this stable in 2024 but did shaped more encouragingly when fifth of eight at Kempton (1m, AW) 55 days ago; needs to build on that.
