Off the mark (sixth attempt) when scoring at Newbury (6f, soft) last month and he followed up in another nursery at Ayr (6f, good) at two weeks ago; looks open to more progress but he recorded an RPR of 85 last time and has plenty to find in this tough race.

16-1 debut winner at Doncaster (5f, soft); faced the same scenario but at Listed level at Sandown and wasn't out of his depth, staying on well for third from an unpromising position; stepping up to 6f looks the way to go and he's not without hope of outrunning his odds, provided stall 1 (from which The Wow Signal obliged ten years ago) is no drawback; tongue-tie added.

Form & Verdict
Useful form when winning over 5f at the Curragh (soft/heavy) on debut and he was a close third in a 6f Group 3 there (good) next time; that form puts him in the picture but he's not gone on from that since and is now 1-5 after being held at Longchamp (7f Group 3) last month; others are more persuasive.

Often leads, as when beating two rivals in a Beverley seller in July; best effort since when headed near the line at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) last month but he ran flat when turned out quickly at Chester since; has a shade to prove on balance.

Has only won a seller in Britain but he took some passing off 1lb lower last time at Thirsk (7f, good to soft); likes to lead so he'll need to do plenty of early running from stall 8.

Form & Verdict
Has solid form figures of 2134 and that latest run was in a big-field nursery at Doncaster (6.5f, good) three weeks ago; still has potential but that last run was off a BHA mark of 79 and this is a tough assignment.
