Form & Verdict
Yarmouth novice winner (6f, good to firm) for Harry Eustace as a 2yo, but not built on it and form has regressed in three starts for this yard; down another 2lb, but still not sure what his best trip is; best watched for now.

Mid-division on both starts here (2024); solid AW campaign has been carried over to turf with seconds at Doncaster (7f) and Redcar (1m) on last two outings, beaten a nose last time, and those put him firmly in the mix.
