He was having just his second handicap run when comfortably seeing off six rivals at Haydock (1m6f, good; for today's rider) 24 days ago; unlikely his revised mark will prove beyond him in time; shortlist material.

Lightly raced 6yo; good bumper performer (two places before 1m5f Fontwell win in March 2025); fair runs at up to 1m4f on the AW on the Flat so far, beaten 10l by Constitution Hill over 1m4f at Kempton in March; chance back up in trip on second handicap start.

Useful bumper winner; has been brought along steadily in this sphere, a patiently ridden seventh in 1m4f Kempton novice 26 days ago; looks capable of a fair bit better now going handicapping and not without interest.

Form & Verdict
Unconsidered 150-1 shot for his C&D debut 17 days ago but shaped okay, keeping on in the straight to finish sixth (beaten just over 2l); that race was steadily run early though and he'll need a step forward to trouble the principals.

Good form claims but that has been the case in both his runs for George Boughey this year (6f and 7f) and he's been a bit disappointing; best Irish run came at this trip; more minor money on the cards.

Stepped up on his debut effort at Ffos Las when finishing second of nine at Nottingham three weeks ago (8.3f, good to soft); picked off late there having got racing with the favourite a long way out; the winner, fourth and fifth home all won their next start and he's the one to beat.

Reappeared with a win in the Spring Mile at Doncaster (good to soft) before good third at Newbury (1m, good), and took another step forward to win the Buckingham Palace over C&D (good to firm) at Royal Ascot; this 4yo is clearly progressive and could play another leading role up 4lb for last time.

Low-mileage 4yo who has raced mostly over 1m, showing broadly progressive form; comfortably landed the Lincoln consolation race at Doncaster (good to soft) on seasonal debut, then ran creditably at Newbury; gives the impression he'll be fine over this stiff 7f; may do better still.
