Seven-race maiden; struggled in three runs on dirt in Dubai but he's returned to Britain with a close fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) and good second behind Zarakerjack on turf debut at Newbury (1m2f, good); up 4lb but he pulled clear of the third last time and raised his form to a new level with that eyecatching effort; respected.

Middle-distance pedigree and unfancied for 6f debut here in June but he showed plenty of dash from the outside stall when third of 11 and looks sure to progress for yard that rarely has them wound up first time; unlucky with the draw again but the extra furlong can suit.
