Form & Verdict
Placed in each of his three runs for J-C Rouget in France last year (7f-1m, good, very soft and heavy), showing a tendency to race freely and drift right under pressure; badly squeezed out in the final furlong at Bordeaux in November, after which he was sold for 69,000euros; going right-handed should be beneficial on his stable debut and he's one to take seriously.

Encouraging reappearance run in the Spring Mile at Doncaster and he built on that to win at Pontefract (1m, good to soft); that was a narrow success but he beat five subsequent winners in that race and is only 2lb higher here; interesting contender.

Form & Verdict
Third foal; closely related to 7f winner Fall Of Rome (RPR 95), half-brother to 2m hurdle winner Hill Spirit; dam 7f and 1m (Listed) 2yo winner (98); appealing pedigree but he has a useful standard to aim at on debut.

Made all at Yarmouth (good to firm) on his April return and it was a fine effort when third at Newbury (also 1m2f, good) a fortnight later; couldn't maintain his lead in better events subsequently but this drop back in grade should see him last longer.

Made it 2-5 when making all in Yarmouth handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his reappearance in April; creditable third at Newbury the following month but he flopped when joint-favourite at Redcar last time; has bit to prove again after that and he could have competition for the lead back on AW.

Promise in both AW starts, more recently keeping on well behind one who has defied a penalty since (1m); open to further progress and he is his Newmarket trainer's only runner on the card (five runners at Musselburgh to date have recorded one win, two seconds and two thirds).
