130,000euros yearling who will stay beyond a mile; ran a nice first race at Haydock (7f, good; 10-1) where a truer gallop would have aided his cause; was beaten under 3l.

Did too much up front over 1m1f on penultimate start but never landed a blow when ridden with restraint in first-time hood (retained) over 7.5f latest; progress has stopped since French Listed win and he still has something to prove beyond 1m.

Has seemed a non-stayer over 1m2f and 1m1f (did too much up front) in last two appearances; steadily progressive form at 7f-1m otherwise, culminating in French Listed win; hood now fitted; not ruled out.

Record of 3-6 last term featured a Listed win (1m) on French soil, which followed a good effort in nursery at the York Ebor festival; failed to get home over 1m2f at Saint-Cloud final start; this looks a stiff task under 3lb penalty returned to domestic duty.

Dead-heated at Wetherby (1m, good to firm; 12-1) on penultimate start; paid the price for a rapid mid-race move at Ripon (fourth of seven, beaten over 5l) subsequently; isn't without a chance from 4lb above his mark at Wetherby; stablemate of Lope Y Linda.

Off the mark at the tenth attempt when dead-heating in a Wetherby handicap (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; this is tougher under a penalty but he showed a good attitude last time and is open to more progress; respected.

Seven races last year for David Loughnane and sole win in a Wolverhampton nursery (8.6f, AW) in October in first-time cheekpieces, which were kept when never dangerous in his two starts since; latest was stable/seasonal debut (25-1) and maybe he needed that run, but others have more pressing claims.

Sole win for David Loughnane came in a Wolverhampton nursery (8.6f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) in October; picked up for 20,000gns later that month and now makes his stable debut after 174 days off; well drawn; watch market.

Fourth of five when 5-6 at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) on debut but he showed more when third of five at Ayr (7f, good to soft) 15 days ago, albeit well positioned before well held; that sets the standard on RPRs; yard won this in 2023.

Only ran at Chester last Friday (7f, good) where he was forced wide and then found trouble in running; that was only a seller, though, and he's clearly vulnerable to anything with potential.

Ended his 2yo season with a hat-trick; consistent efforts this term, good third at Beverley (7.5f) most recently; getting no respite from the assessor but is reasonably solid and likely to give his running.

Completed a hat-trick at Doncaster (6f) in November to end 2025 and he's continued in very good form this spring when in the frame in 7f handicaps at Southwell and Newbury; ought to be in the shake-up again.
