Form & Verdict
Promise on last summer's Windsor debut (6f, good to firm), after which he was gelded; looked a different proposition when bolting up at Newmarket in November (6f, good), tanking through the race and coming home 4l to the good; mixed messages from the form but open to further progress and he's one to take seriously.

Form & Verdict
Inexperience evident when third of nine on his Newbury debut last September (6f, soft); confirmed that promise when digging deep at York one month later (again 6f on soft), edging left in the closing stages but pulling clear with the runner-up who won easily next time; faster ground shouldn't be an issue on pedigree and he's capable of better.

Cost 260,000gns as a yearling and is out of a Group placed 7f winner; landed the odds at York (6f, soft) in the second of his two 2yo runs and he went close in a Doncaster novice (6f, good to firm) on his return last month; this step up in trip should suit on handicap debut and he's an interesting contender off what looks a fair opening mark.

Form & Verdict
The penny dropped in the final furlong when making a winning debut at Thirsk last July (6f, good to soft), belying his 40-1 odds in the process; that form lags behind that achieved by some of his rivals and likely he'll be found easier opportunities to defy a penalty.

800,000gns breeze-up purchase 12 months ago; didn't look especially well suited by either the soft ground or 5f when making a winning debut at Yarmouth in October and he was clearly green during the race too; with that in mind, and the form of the racing looking a lot better now than it did at the time, he's a major player.

Overcame his inexperience to win a 5f novice at Yarmouth last October (soft ground); it was almost certainly a hot Doncaster novice in which he finished fourth on his reappearance two weeks ago (6f, good to firm) and his opening mark looks manageable; yard can do little wrong and he's a leading contender.
