Form & Verdict
Half-brother to two useful winners; both runs over 7f at Kempton, confirming the promise of October's debut second when getting on top towards the finish 29 days ago; the third last time has won since; better to come, particularly now moving up to 1m, and he's the one to beat despite the penalty.

Both wins in AW novices (7f/1m) early this year; runner-up over 1m in two of his four starts on turf but below form in both spheres on last two outings; bit to prove, including on softer than good.

Probably hasn't enjoyed heavy/good to soft ground on turf the last twice but his record on Polytrack (4212) is a bit better than on Tapeta (484) and he remains 4lb higher than for his Kempton win (6f) in August.

Kempton winner (6f; from 5lb lower) in August; moderately progressive form came to an abrupt end on heavy ground at Salisbury (6f; favourite) latest, and it is a legitimate concern that his three best efforts have been on AW; cheekpieces added to regular tongue-tie.
