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.

Generally consistent since a Wetherby dead-heat in the spring off 2lb lower; today's stiff 7.4f should be fine and he looks set to go well once more.

A fair 8.5f winner for David Loughnane in 2025; little show first two runs for new yard but much better signs (in change of headgear) with third of ten in 1m1f handicap at Carlisle last month; not out of things on his first go over this trip.

Won at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) last October in first-time cheekpieces and he's one to watch in the betting in first-time blinkers today, but he's struggled on both runs this season and a major turnaround is necessary.

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.

Had a bit to spare when making it third time lucky at Catterick (7f, good) 37 days; promising third on good to soft prior to that; should continue to go the right way for his top 2yo stable.

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.

Completed a hat-trick at Doncaster (6f) in November and continued in very good form when placed in four handicaps this season, including when third of 14 at York (7f) in May. Came in well held there (7f) last time but he's the sort to bounce back.

Reliable type who again gave his running when third of 14 over C&D at the Dante meeting (good); nudged up 1lb but that should not prevent another bold bid.
