Fourth in the Commonwealth Cup here (good to firm) during progressive 2024 campaign, which culminated in Group 1 C&D win (soft) in the British Champions Sprint; 0-6 since but runner-up in the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock (6f, good) last September and filled the same position on last month's return in the Group 2 Minster Stakes at York (6f, good); may not be far away.

Very smart performer whose Group 1 record features a win on Champions Day at Ascot (6f, soft) in 2024 and second-place finishes in the last two runnings of the Sprint Cup at Haydock (6f, good); leading player at the weights, assuming he's in top form (disappointing back at Ascot when last seen).

Enjoyed his finest hour when winning this race on soft ground last season; slow to get going this term but he shaped as if coming to the boil when second of 17 to Big Mojo in the Sprint Cup at Haydock (6f, good) six weeks ago, finishing well after being hampered; Ascot suits him and he looks primed for another bold bid.

J: James Doyle

Debut second (6f, AW) worked out well; cherry-picked a Redcar win (soft) next time but wasn't seen to best advantage at Haydock (7f, good) in June, when racing freely in front and seemingly not entirely at home on the left-handed bends, nevertheless keeping on for third of 11; can reveal more if getting cover here; yard won this twice in the last nine years.

Form & Verdict
Well beaten at even money in a Navan maiden 11 months ago on his sole run for Ger Lyons; much more like it when a front-running second of 11 at Southwell last week (7f) but he was well positioned in a slowly run race so the form isn't entirely convincing; still holds form claims dropped in trip.

Front-runner; two AW wins (5f) last autumn but he returned after a short break with a well-held fifth of eight at Pontefract (5f, good) last month; may have needed that run but his sole turf win was two years ago and others are more persuasive.

Form & Verdict
The best of his four runs as a 2yo came when second of 11 at Newcastle (6f), his only attempt on AW; that effort sets the standard and he's likely to make a bold bid on his return from six months off.

Got up late to win Bath novice (5f, good to firm) for Andrew Balding in June; 0-9 for this yard (majority 6f, turf/AW) and first-time cheekpieces (removed) didn't spark an improved effort last time; career-low mark and second go at this trip (first is easily excused) the straws to clutch at.
