Won a handicap on reappearance and he's held his own since for minor honours in three Listed events and a Group race; left Roger Varian before his close third at Windsor (soft) five weeks ago behind Sea Of Roses, who runs in the 2.25 today; a leading player. |

One of three runners for this yard; scored over 1m2f at Chester in May and largely consistent otherwise this term, most recently second at Beverley (upped to 1m4f; good) last Saturday; appears likely to go well again. |

Can make the running; won on good to firm as 2yo; also scored at Chester in May and best form when runner-up at Redcar and Ripon on his last two starts, all over 1m2f on good; has a competitive mark but some of his rivals are less exposed. |

Bagged runner-up honours at Wolverhampton (1m4f) on Boxing Day, albeit proving no match for a rival who was beaten by Dark Moon Rising the time before; losing run is mounting up. |

11st 7lb |
Won on fast ground at Ripon (1m2f) and Lingfield (11.6f) in June and he ran into a major improver when fourth in a Class 2 event at Beverley last time; probably still has some margin for error off this mark but he's not ruled out on this drop back in grade. |

Disappointing favourite in this race last year but he does stay the trip and acts on heavy going; Thirsk in May saw his first win since 2022 but he's underperformed on last four outings; the last two were admittedly on AW and he's back to that last winning mark. |

27th Oct 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Two wins on the Flat, rated as high as 95 when with Sir Mark Prescott; a long way below that in a Flat event at Listowel a month ago; took well enough to hurdling in four outings between March and June, best effort when second at Punchestown in May; let down by his jumping at Downpatrick in September; good chance if producing his best on first-time cheekpieces. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 2m 1f 165y |

Won a twice on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott and has made the frame on all four starts over hurdles; weak finishing effort at Punchestown in June provides cause for concern, but looks the clear pick of these runners based on his Naas third in April and Punchestown second in May. |

Only seen sporadically in recent times and is now with his third yard, having run poorly in two starts for George Boughey; pulled hard when finishing last back from a break five weeks ago and it's hard to build up much enthusiasm. |

Third in the 1m6f Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot in 2021 but seen mostly over 1m4f since, running with credit in defeat last term for the Gosdens; had wind and gelding operations before his debut for this stable in October and shaped better than last in that Listed race might suggest; not entirely dismissed. |
