Form & Verdict
Down the field in three 7f runs, two of them last month on the Polytrack at Kempton; the latest effort wasn't without hope (switched right at the cutaway and meandered to his left in the final furlong) and he appeals as a likely big improver now handicapping.

Arrives here on the back of three very solid runs, winning at Windsor (2m, good) and going down narrowly since on soft and good ground; off the same mark as last time and it's just a question of whether he'll stay this far (Flat bred).

Improved upon previous hurdle form to get off the mark at the 11th attempt in this code at Windsor (2m, good) on New Year's Day; did it readily and there remains mileage in his mark (now 9lb higher) judged on his Flat ability; has shown hints of promise on soft/good to soft ground.

Form & Verdict
Won a Brighton maiden (6f, good to firm) on his second start but he hasn't progressed since, beaten in a C&D seller on his penultimate start; respectable effort in a Leicester nursery 16 days ago but he needs more for this step up in trip if he's to win again.
