Form & Verdict
All three runs have been at 6f and he's been placed in two of them, including a good second behind the favourite in a C&D novice (good) two weeks ago; that form puts him firmly in the picture here and this well-bred colt is open to more progress.

Well handicapped on his old form but sole win was in a maiden in 2024 and he's been inconsistent this year; made some late headway when fifth at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) last time but he's now 0-15 in handicaps and others are more solid.

Doesn't often run over this trip and has tended to get done for toe since dropped from 6f lately; a slow start from stall 12 at Chester did for him last time but others make more obvious appeal, returned to the visor from blinkers.

4,000gns yearling; half-sister to four winners but has plenty of stamina in her pedigree and she got outpaced when a well-held sixth on Thirsk debut (5f, soft) in April; now goes up in trip after a short break but she has lots to find and is probably a longer-term prospect.

Beverley fillies' maiden winner (7.5f, good to firm; 8-1) in August 2024; could strip fitter for recent Newcastle run (1m; last of six) which came after 166 days off; easing mark, plus the presence of a 7lb claimer, means she merits a market check.

Form & Verdict
Bought for 48,000gns at the breeze-ups in April; made a promising start when third of 11 at Windsor (6f, good) last month and he wasn't disgraced when in midfield in Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (5f Listed) ten days ago; this step back in trip looks a positive and he sets the standard back in much calmer waters.

Improved form upped to 6f on second start when third of 14 in the Rous seller at York (6f, good to soft) two weeks ago; this is tougher back in a maiden but that was an eyecatching effort last time and he's open to more progress; one of two runners for yard.
