Form & Verdict
Big eyecatcher when green on debut here (6f) and that form was boosted by the winner; he confirmed the promise of that run when getting off the mark over 7f last month; gave the impression another step up in trip wouldn't be an issue and sets the standard on form.

All four starts at Dundalk, winning conditions events (7f/1m) earlier in year and finishing third of eight in a Listed contest (1m) last month; the winner of that race did little for the form at Meydan last Saturday and likely he will need a bit more to come out on top.

Improved with each run on AW through the winter, landing Dundalk maiden on his penultimate start before a Listed fourth latest; needs to improve to defy this mark now handicapping and not certain to appreciate a drop to 7f.
