Sole win (23 races) was an AW maiden in November 2024; way down the weights these days and although he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and showed something here (5f) on penultimate start, others have to be higher up the list.

Has the same strike-rate (1-22) as Horus and his win was in November 2024; has been up and down this year but he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and he didn't get the best of runs when a respectable sixth at Windsor (5f) last time; has another switch of headgear and he could be dangerous back up in trip.

He has run to only a modest level in his first two starts (7f, AW/6f, heavy) but there has been clear promise and his pedigree offers hope that 5f will suit even better; dangerous in a race lacking depth.
