Won two 1m4f handicaps at Southwell in late 2024 but he didn't match that form in three starts last year and left Archie Watson for 5,000gns in October; yard (also runs Shipshape) won this with a 33-1 shot last year and this one is likely to be a similar price.

Dual 1m4f winner here who ran poorly when last seen eight months ago (was withdrawn a week later, when found to be coughing, which may have had something to do with it); interesting to see how he goes in the market.

Recorded back-to-back wins at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in July and Newmarket (1m2f, good) in August; raced too freely when fifth of eight at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) but if he can settle then he holds good claims on this step up in trip.
