250,000gns son of Frankel; unraced on softer than good; won at Salisbury on debut and gave subsequent big-race winner New Century plenty to think about in three-runner, 1m Listed race at same course (1m); registered his own Listed success in eight-runner race at Haydock (1m) three weeks ago, travelling best and asserting in good style once he got in the clear, so he brings good form and plenty of promise.

Form & Verdict
Both starts at Newbury, better effort last time (6.5f, good to firm) when close second behind a Godolphin newcomer who cost 525,000gns at breeze-up sale and looks potentially smart; should have no problem with this extra yardage; sets the form standard.

A Southwell maiden win last summer remains his only success after 15 attempts but he has run good races in defeat in all three starts this year; conditions should suit well and he is more appealing than most.

Never figured over 5f at Ascot then proved suited by the longer distance at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) where he finished fourth, albeit running to an ordinary RPR; needs to show further progress.
