Form & Verdict
Built upon first two runs (6f/7f, good) when bolting up in Salisbury novice (7f, soft) last October; fair sixth of eight in Group 3 over this C&D (heavy) when last seen; testing ground seems to suit and he can win a nice race when conditions are in his favour, but improvement is needed in this.

Reappeared last season with victory in the Group 3 John Of Gaunt over C&D and he signed off the campaign with a fine third in the Group 1 Foret at Longchamp; might have needed the run when fourth in Listed event at the Curragh six weeks ago; versatile in terms of the ground; solid chance.

Campaigned mostly on good/firmer ground; rallied gamely for Listed honours at Goodwood (1m2f) most recently and, assuming another gritty display is on the way, should remain competitive; top on his peak figure, achieved when defying top weight in last year's Cambridgeshire (1m1f).

Defied top weight in the 2025 Cambridgeshire (1m1f, good to firm) and holds a leading chance provided that smart handicap form is reproduced; hasn't transferred it back to Group level this term but he's respected on ratings and is a similar type to last year's winner of this race (for same connections).

Can lead and goes well here, as he showed again when defying top-weight in the Cambridgeshire handicap over C&D (good to firm) in September; left the impression the run was just needed and/or the trip stretched him when close fourth of five in Winter Derby at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in February; a bold bid is very much on the cards.

Runner-up on debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) last November and won comfortably at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in December; takes a hike in grade now back from a break but this well-bred Godolphin colt could be up to the task.

Won a 1m AW novice in December and better form in defeat over 7f on the Rowley course here (good) this spring, latterly finishing second in a Listed race ten weeks ago; subsequently gelded; leaves the impression the return to 1m will suit and may not have reached his limit after only four starts.

Idled in front when winning on debut at Sandown (7f, good) last July and not beaten far when fourth of six in Group 3 there (7f, good) in September; soft ground may not have suited at York in October when last seen; in good hands and brings potential to his 3yo campaign; could be a contender.

Met plenty of trouble in running when seventh of 13 from the back at Goodwood (7f, good) in May, beaten a touch over 2l; Royal Ascot handicap (1m, good to firm; 16-1) was disappointing but this 3yo is not dismissed on today's first run since.

Has been set some tough tasks since his debut win but there were signs of finding his level when an unlucky-in-running seventh in the 7f handicap at Goodwood last month won by Qirat; he was beaten a smidgeon over 2l and could easily have threatened on another day; worth a second look off an untouched mark; bred for this far.

Beat very good yardstick in Popmaster for fourth AW win from just eight tries at Lingfield 19 days ago (1m; ridden by Jack Callan for the first time); up just 3lb, and no issue with this shorter trip, but he's never been to Kempton and trainer is just 1-14 here last five years.

Four-time AW winner who was having just his second crack at a turf handicap when good sixth of 17 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; also switched across from a poor draw to deliver his bid so that effort can probably be upgraded a little further; forecast softer ground is an unknown but otherwise respected.
