Off the mark on handicap debut at Salisbury (1m2f, good) in May; below that form off 4lb higher mark at Goodwood (1m2f, good to soft) last month; steps up significantly in trip but not out of this on AW debut.

Still signs of inexperience when appreciating the step up to this trip on her handicap debut three weeks ago; hood comes off and there could well be more to come for a yard that continues in good form, so holds decent claims upped 4lb.

Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat.

He will have something to prove if slow ground prevails and he was tailed off on his recent reappearance over 2m at Musselburgh; however, that was his first run beyond 1m3f and he went close over that trip at Carlisle last August, when 2lb higher; might not be a forlorn hope back down in trip.

0-15 but he had a near-miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month before a close fourth over C&D when not a lot went right; looks interesting on that form and he had an excuse on slow ground at Hamilton last time; not ruled out back on AW.
