Form & Verdict
Left his Ascot debut form well behind when an eyecatching fifth of 11 over C&D (1m, good to firm) in September; didn't build on that at Kempton later that month but a switch to positive tactics may have backfired and it is still early days for this well-related gelding; respected on his return.
