Unable to win in these colours on the Flat but there was plenty of promise, notably when third in a 1m4f handicap at Salisbury (RPR 83); seems to go on most ground and should make a hurdler; cheekpieces sported of late are left off.

Showed plenty of ability on all six starts but no win, despite cheekpieces on all three runs this season, different tactics and varied ground; drops in class after his fifth of 12 in a valuable 3yo handicap at Newmarket (1m2f) 12 days ago; probably on the premises.

Went close in one of his Flat starts for Andrew Balding, over 1m4f on the AW; ran his best race yet over hurdles when the clear second behind a promising recruit (had decent Flat form) at Plumpton (2m1f, good); might well be the answer if accepting the first-time visor.
