Won in spite of some errant tendencies on his 2yo debut last July (6f, good to firm); struggled in a Group 2 next time and two handicap runs this summer (after a gelding operation) haven't been chock full of promise; edging down the weights but others look more appealing.

Confirmed the promise of his Southwelll debut in December by winning a 6f novice at Lingfield in good style in January; similar form in defeat twice since; he'll need another step forward to defy this mark from a wide stall though.

Runner-up in a Kempton handicap in June (6f) off a 3lb higher mark; not matched it twice in the meantime but has been gelded since his latest run and this mark should be within range; more appealing than many.

Good form in two AW runs in the spring, winning easily at Wolverhampton before failing to concede 7lb to a useful opponent over C&D; never in the hunt in a hot handicap at Newmarket's Guineas meeting but he's better than that; lower draw would have been preferred but suspect he's on a good mark.
