Three-time winner signed off last season with excellent placed efforts in a Haydock Group 3 (1m, good) and a Listed event at Craon (1m, very soft); not disgraced behind Docklands in Listed Doncaster Mile on seasonal return; sharper for that and this British raider is respected.

Three wins from his first five starts before finishing second on final two runs last season at Haydock (1m Group 3, good) and Craon (1m Listed, very soft); he has something to find today but this lightly raced 4yo is open to further improvement this term and could give a good account.

Took his record to 3-5 when producing a smart handicap performance over 7f here four weeks ago; only sixth in a Chester Listed race prior to that but that probably shouldn't be taken to suggest he can't make an impact at a higher level; all turf starts on good.

Form & Verdict
Has worn this hood on both runs; kept on for 8l fourth of 12 on debut at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) last month and built on that when third of six at Catterick (7f, good); needs another step forward today but there can be optimism this well-bred colt will continue to progress for his top yard.
