3,000euros yearling, 155,000euros 2yo; dam a modest maiden; not really bred for 5f but he must have breezed smartly and he needs a market check.

9st 7lb

J: Oisin Orr

T: Richard Fahey

3yo with an excellent strike-rate; has a 2-2 record at Chester and notched a personal best when gamely making most from stall 1 over C&D (good) five weeks ago; not so well drawn this time but he's up only 2lb and should put up another bold show.

J: Connor Murtagh

T: Richard Fahey

The form of his C&D win at the May meeting now reads really well given he was getting just 1lb off Al Shabab Storm who has since gone 211 and is BHA-rated 107 now; didn't appear to cope with the Dip too well at Newmarket next time and his York run was just too bad to be true; major player providing he breaks well from stall 1.

Form & Verdict
Tailed off on debut but showed much more on his second start, going down by a head at Beverley (5f, good) in July; respectable third at Musselburgh last time but needs to get back to his best to win.

Ended 2023 with 5f Wolverhampton success in November but gelded and looked in need of the run on his belated return when only seventh of eight at Redcar (5f) in June; he needs to take a big step forward.

9st 2lb

J: Joanna Mason

T: Gemma Tutty

Has a bit to find with several of these on bare form but he's an improving 3yo, well worth his place in the line-up; followed a win in the 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft) with a fine second of 28 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); arrives here fresh and another personal best is on the cards.

J: Hollie Doyle

T: Gemma Tutty

Improving for Gemma Tutty and he took his form to a new level when picking up smartly to win the 3yo Dash at Epsom on Derby day (5f, good to soft); hit with a 6lb hike and he has yet to race on turf faster than good; today's race will present a different test and others have stronger credentials.

J: Rossa Ryan

T: Gemma Tutty

Having only his second run for Gemma Tutty when winning smoothly under Rossa Ryan at Southwell (5f, AW) in December and he made a pleasing start to the new campaign when a close fourth to Knicks at Chester (5f, good; raced freely and short of room) last month; that should have put him spot-on for this; won't be inconvenienced by any rain; commands major respect.

Too green to do himself justice on debut in July but gelded afterwards and took a step forward when fourth of nine at Lingfield (5f, AW) 18 days ago; stiffer test at the trip will suit and he's capable of better.
