Form & Verdict

Fair form on first two starts and better when he got off the mark at 2-5 in a six-runner novice at Chester (6f, heavy) on latest; leading claims, especially as he goes on the ground.

Out of a Listed-place 5f winner; not disgraced when fifth of sixth in quite valuable Ripon novice (6f, good) last month and, although it's tricky to weigh up what she achieved there, she's open to improvement if more settled in the early stages here.

Some promise in novice/maiden company, notably when runner-up to a 2-5 shot at Chester (6f, heavy) on second outing; hung right-handed when fourth at Wolverhampton last time (7f); may fare better on handicap debut.

J: Harrison Shaw

T: Adrian Paul Keatley

Only fifth of six on debut but hinted at ability; backed that up when chasing home a red-hot favourite at Chester last week (6f, heavy), clear of the third, and the run was backed up by the Topspeed figure; new trip today but his brother Making Time won over 7f as a 2yo; has more to come.

Placed on latest three of his four starts for new stable this season, most recently when clear second to an improver at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) four weeks ago; still unexposed over this trip and will be fine back on turf; likely contender again.
