Often front-runner; made a winning handicap debut off 2lb lower at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in March but he dropped away having raced freely at Kempton (6f, AW) next time and didn't see it out over 5f at Chelmsford 13 days ago after being gelded; switches back to turf.

Improved on his 2yo form when a game front-running winner on handicap debut here (6f) in March; didn't settle when disappointing at Kempton last month but he's been gelded since and he could resume his progress on this drop back in trip; dangerous.

Sole win (from 25 attempts) came in a seller at Beverley in May 2025; inconsistent this year but ran well when fourth of 12 at Carlisle (5f, good) a fortnight ago and can be thereabouts if backing up that performance.

Best of two efforts was recorded on debut here last month (beaten 7l, modest form); refusal to settle, despite a hood for both starts, has probably been the key problem rather than the 7f.
