Improved on his debut 1m run at Gowran when just beaten over 6f last time at Naas; showed early speed that day, so should be able to cope with the drop to 5f and be involved.

Over three years since his sole success (5f, good to yielding); first encouragement for some time when in midfield at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago; stiffer stamina test not sure to suit.

Banged at the door through the 2024 campaign but last season was disappointing and no sign of the tide turning this year, including when standing still in the stalls at Redcar in July; a hood goes back on today but he has to prove his stamina and others are much more persuasive.

Still seeking a first handicap success; huge chance on his 2024 form but he went the wrong way last season and his return to action at Doncaster last month was uninspiring; he has had a wind operation, his second, since but there are risks attached.

Showed nothing on sole 2yo start but fine efforts in 6f maidens last twice; has 2.25l to find with Mythical Phoenix from that run but shows early speed so the drop in trip looks a plus.
