Found a few decent maiden/novice events on turf last summer, latterly in blinkers (retained), since when he's been gelded and undergone wind surgery; helps set the standard.

Both wins when making all in small fields, latterly a fast-ground handicap at Salisbury (1m) in first-time cheekpieces in June; never involved in a much deeper race at the York Ebor meeting eight weeks later; off another two months; soft ground would be an unknown; others are more obvious.

Both wins making all in small fields, latest at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) two months ago when taking well to first-time cheekpieces; steadily progressive but faces a very different scenario in this huge field; headgear retained.

From a very good family, being a half-brother to Canadian Grade 1 winner Sarah Lynx and 1m2f Group 3 winner Sugar Boy among others; wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning debut.

Plenty of promise in three runs for Archie Watson at the start of the year, including on AW; however, tailed off on yard debut in a Galway maiden and pulled up in two hurdle starts since; wears first-time blinkers.

Form & Verdict
Below market expectations on his debut here in January, but fluffed the start over 6f and needed the experience; much more like it over C&D latest, when only beaten a nose, and has similar claims to Crown Estate on that.

Came from the rear to win on his handicap/stable debut at Chester (7.5f, good) in June and has suffered trouble in running both starts since; this 3yo retains potential and could play a leading role if getting the breaks.

Not without hope in two runs over C&D this year but this is again likely to prove beyond her, with handicaps probably next on the agenda.

Low-grade Flat winner who has taken pretty well to hurdling this year and looked poised to challenge when brought down at final flight at Fontwell (2m1f, good) last month; non-runner at Newton Abbot on Tuesday evening and has good claims if she comes here instead.
