Last run: 44 days

W: 9st 9lb

3 yo Colt

OR: 62

Form & Verdict
No solid claims after his three qualifying runs (6f, 1m and 7f) but he's been gelded since latest, there's been a whiff of ability and he now has cheekpieces; starting handicap life on a modest mark, he needs a market check.

After initial promise, she ran three poor races in a row before a big change of tactics, with Jamie Spencer enlisted, to come from a detached last to win ten-runner handicap at Newmarket (dropped back to 1m, good; 10-1) 16 days ago; back up 2lb but may have turned a corner.

Couldn't quite seal the deal having led over 1f out at Wolverhampton last week (8.6f); decent claims on that, though not sure it was solely the draw which contributed to a moderate effort on Nottingham's turf before that (RPR of 45 in his division versus Glitter Code's 62 in his).
