Didn't always look straightforward for Andrew Balding for whom his form petered out; however, he won two of his eight races (1m/1m2f) for that yard and has joined another good one to go hurdling; bought for 20,000gns.

Form & Verdict
Ran into some trouble in novice here (7f, heavy) in early August but finished well to snatch third of ten and was beaten less than 2l; that was a promising start and the form gives him major each-way claims today, but he flopped when favourite at Ffos Las (7.3f, good to soft) over three weeks later.

2yo win was 1m2f on soft; no improvement this season and although his sixth of 13 in the London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good; unraced on firmer) last time was creditable, others seem to shout out more loudly for 1m4f.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred 180,000gns 2yo; stayed on well for second in a maiden at Newmarket (7f, good) in July and for close third of eight in novice at Haydock (1m, good) 13 days later; some disappointment with the latter given he was 4-5 and failed to improve his form but he has the best form in this line-up and looks well equipped for a stamina test.

Similar fair form, beaten about 2l, when fifth of 11 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good; checked late on) and third of eight in novice at Southwell (7f, AW) 17 days later; 11-10 favourite in the latter and flashed his tail when challenging but 1m can help and he may yet do better.
