Has switched between cheekpieces and a visor on last few starts, running well each time; visor back on today; won two nurseries in a row last month (6f, good to firm/AW) and third at Haydock (7f, good) last time when fading close home; unraced on slow ground; firmly in calculations now back at 6f.

Took a while to find his feet but has taken off lately, making the breakthrough in a Catterick nursery (good to firm) in first-time blinkers last month before following up under a penalty in a similar event at Chelmsford (also 6f, AW) in a first-time visor; penalised again but he's 2lb well in, promises to stay 7f, and is respected back in cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
350,000euros breeze-up 2yo; sent off 5-6 for last month's Nottingham debut (5f, good), but could only manage third of eight having missed the break; should have learnt from that and the extra furlong shouldn't be an issue; major player.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Chepstow novice winner (6f, good to firm) who won a nursery at Windsor (6f, good to soft) last month; no threat for the first two when third in the Group 2 Mill Reef at Newbury (6f, good to soft) three weeks ago but that was still a good performance and he could be a contender now down in grade.

J: Tom Marquand

Narrowly justified favouritism in Windsor nursery (6f, good to soft) last time when looking well treated on his earlier second behind the subsequent Gimcrack winner; steadily progressive but this is harder.

Below-par favourite in French sales race (soft) last time; has progressive form on home soil, most recently second under a penalty at Thirsk (6f, good) behind the subsequent Gimcrack winner; opening mark looks workable.

Maiden was runner-up three times in a row at Dundalk during the winter; not as good in recent months; midfield in 6f Curragh handicap on latest but this is an ease in grade; Colin Keane takes over; high draw not ideal.
