Form & Verdict
Well-regarded colt who has had three runs at 7f this summer; was only just caught at Ascot (good to soft; RPR 86) on his second start and he wasn't beaten far in strong maiden at York (good to firm) last month; sets a good standard on his peak form and this step up in trip should suit on pedigree; key player.

Ended a long losing run at Lingfield (1m2f) in February and backed it up with a solid fourth of 12 in 1m2f handicap there the following month; considered.

J: Mr David Dunsdon

He had been badly out of sorts prior to popping up at 80-1 in a C&D handicap four weeks ago; still has handicapping scope up 3lb but it remains to be seen if he can back that effort up.

His mark continues to tumble but he isn't giving any obvious indication he's likely to take advantage, failing to beat a rival on all three AW starts this winter.

Form & Verdict
Eyecatching third in newcomers' event at Newmarket (7f, good) last month, despite a distinct lack of market confidence having drifted out to 40-1; that form has been boosted by the first two since and he's open to progress on this step up in trip.

Thriving since the cheekpieces went on, scoring at Southwell (1m4f) in February and bettering that form when beaten 1l by Son Of Man over C&D 24 days ago; enjoys a 2lb weights pull now so he's a likely player.

Running well this year, winning at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) in February and going down by a neck in two starts over this C&D either side; up another 1lb, but another big effort is expected.

Had a bit so spare when seeing off ten rivals in a 1m4f Southwell handicap last week; has a bit of class for this level and he's likely to make another bold bid.

Form & Verdict
55,000gns yearling; never dangerous when 20-1 at Goodwood (1m, good) ten days ago but he ran into some trouble before staying on well for fourth; that was a promising start behind an odds-on rival and he should know more this time.

In good form in the first half of 2025, including a 1m2f win at Yarmouth (good ground) last April; ended the year quietly and he was only in midfield in a 1m2f handicap at Nottingham on his reappearance last month; on a dangerous mark if using that as a stepping stone.
