Form & Verdict
Left his debut effort well behind when a promising third at Deauville (6f, heavy) in August; sets the standard on that form but he's been disappointing since and was last of 11 in a Pontefract nursery (6f, soft) last month; has questions to answer and he needs a major turnaround.

Displayed a dark side when virtually refusing to race at Southwell on his seasonal/stable debut (also first run after gelding and wind operations) but he left that behind when a major eyecatcher at Chelmsford five weeks ago, held up under restraint but making a notable move in the fourth furlong, only for those exertions to take their toll late on; should be capable of better and while there is a slight concern he might fluff the start again, he's an intriguing contender against exposed opposition.
