Form & Verdict
110,000gns yearling; made a promising debut when fifth of 13 at Goodwood (6f, good to soft) last August and that form has had some major boosts since, including by the runner-up who won a Group 2 in the autumn; returns after wind surgery but he sets a fair standard and has plenty of scope for progress; key player.

Looked to be coming to the boil when third at Southwell last month but two subsequent turf efforts have been blighted by slow starts; on a dangerous mark but he goes without any accessories and needs to get it right at the stalls.

Four 6f wins on good or faster turf; running himself into form on AW for his new yard this winter, most recently keeping on for third in a 0-80 at Southwell three weeks ago; 14lb lower than for his last turf outing; interesting contender.

Lightly-raced 5yo who has won three of his six starts; readily justified short-priced favouritism at Windsor (6f, good to firm) when last seen in June and it is unlikely this mark is beyond him; takes on match-fit rivals here though and may come on for the run.
