Went close last September on debut; disappointing on next two starts but he returned from a gelding operation to win easily in a maiden at Hamilton (1m1f, good) five weeks ago; that was at 1-5 and this handicap debut is a far sterner test; likely to stay.

Improved upon debut sixth at Newbury (6f, good to soft) when runner-up at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; sets a good form standard and this well-bred 190,000euros yearling could continue to progress.

J: Harry Davies

Returned from ten months off to win a Southwell maiden (1m) in August; that is strong form and a subsequent defeat in a 1m2f handicap on good to soft turf shouldn't be held against him; pedigree points to AW being more suitable than turf and there could be plenty more to come from him.

Showed promise last autumn on both 2yo starts (1m, good) and came clear with very useful yardstick to win Southwell maiden (1m, AW) on last month's reappearance; cost 370,370euros at last year's breeze-ups and has potential off his handicap debut mark, especially now up in trip.
