9st 7lb |
Gelded last April; not seen again until his second in a 1m handicap here (soft) in October and he's scored at Wolverhampton in November and in Bahrain (1m1f, good) in February on his two starts since; revised mark demands further progress but he's lightly raced and it may be possible. |

Has raced only on good/faster; impressively defied top weight in Class 2 handicap on the July course here (1m2f) when last seen, taking record to 3-3; debut win came in the Wood Ditton on this track; looks a potential Group performer; interesting contender. |

9st 3lb |
Novice winner at 1m/1m2f; has performed well in two attempts at about 1m4f, finishing fourth in the Gordon Stakes and Newcastle handicap, latter on AW debut two weeks ago (came off steady pace to be beaten only 1l); may rate higher still; enters calculations. |

15th Nov 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won his first two starts 300 days apart and ran well when third of eight in a Group 3 at Goodwood (1m4f, good to firm) in July; also performed well when second of seven in a Listed contest at Deauville (1m2f, good to soft) the following month but well held in a similar event at Newmarket (1m2f, soft; pulled hard) last month; still unexposed and respected on AW/handicap debut. |

27th May 2023 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
3-7 when trained in France, including a Listed win at Compiegne (1m2f, good to soft; first-time blinkers) last summer, and also finished third of nine in a Group 3 at Longchamp (1m2f, good to soft; in cheekpieces) in September; makes his stable debut (same owners) after 195 days off minus any headgear; interesting to see what the market says (unraced on ground faster than good). |

18th Apr 2023 Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very useful and consistent at 1m1f/1m2f in France for Jean-Claude Rouget; Listed winner last July and placed in three subsequent runs; headgear (worn in those four races) now removed; each-way squeak provided he transfers his reliability to Britain. |

27th May 2023 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Useful form as a 2yo and his best performance so far was when third of nine behind Native Trail in last season's Irish 2,000 Guineas (1m, good to yielding); hasn't matched that form in three outings since, though, failing to beat a rival in either start since returning last month; needs a resurgence and still has stamina to prove. |
20/1 |
5th 3 (2) |
5th May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Not far behind Checkandchallenge at Newcastle (AW) and Native Trail at the Curragh (Irish 2,000 Guineas) last spring; however, turned in a dismal effort (albeit on heavy ground) on reappearance and he's now 0-7 since debut success; opposed back up in class. |
