Form & Verdict

Cost 220,000gns as a yearling; shaped well when staying on for fifth of 11 behind a shorter-priced stablemate in a C&D maiden on debut; still looked a bit raw and was outstayed when third over the extended 1m2f on second start; sets the standard but could be vulnerable to one of the newcomers.
