Form & Verdict
Has shown plenty of promise in all three starts, finishing fourth of 14 in a warm Newmarket novice in June and pulling 11l clear of the third when beaten a neck at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last month; major chance of going one better in this uncompetitive maiden.

Contrasting performances this term for new yard, winning at Redcar then failing to beat a rival at Newmarket; chance of rebound partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear.

Campaigned in Qatar and France in 2025; went off joint-favourite on return to Britain and won nine-runner race at Redcar (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago, digging deep; only 2lb higher and should be in the thick of things again.

Failed to shine in France last summer on his last two starts; however, he has potential off this mark if tapping back into the promise shown in Britain in 2024 at the start of his career; the betting could be informative on his first run for Hamad Al Jehani (remains in same ownership).

Form & Verdict
Has shown some really smart form and recorded RPRs of 104 on a couple of occasions as a 3yo, but he is now 0-15 and his last two efforts haven't been amongst his best; half-brother to a couple of AW winners and cheekpieces are given a go now dropped significantly in grade, but doubts remain.

Won on the AW last summer (1m2f) and launched hurdling career with two encouraging fourths, latterly when just over 2l behind Jamada in 18-runner Lingfield maiden (2m, soft) in January; safely held on subsequent handicap debut but still considered here, with the switch to better ground a possible source of improvement.
