Won debut last August and a 1m1f AW Group 3 at Chantilly in November; runner-up in British Group 3s in two other starts, one on good to firm last October and the other in Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f) this April; that's not the best form in this field and he wasn't so good in the Dante at York in May on latest outing, but this lightly raced 3yo could still bring potential and William Buick seemingly prefers him to Arabian Light.
