0-10 but he has posted some solid efforts on the AW; below his best at Southwell (7f, AW) 26 days ago and the switch back to turf isn't sure to suit; cheekpieces now added.

Solid in the market but he looked in need of the experience when fourth of 12 in a 7f novice at Kempton 16 days ago; stable's juveniles can take a big step forward from their debut and he's a leading contender.

Improvement required judged on his August efforts (7f) but combination of physical tweak (wind surgery) and first-time hood may prompt progress; yard also runs Lighting Thunder.

Achieved RPR of 81 when just giving best to Godolphin favourite on debut (7f) and recorded same figure when outstayed on heavy ground over this trip 22 days ago; fancied to go one better.

Clear second behind a well-touted Godolphin newcomer at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) and that RPR of 81 is the best on show here; connections presumably not fazed by running him on slower ground here.

J: Cam Hardie

T: Iain Jardine

Well bred (his dam was second in the Oaks), cost 750,000gns as a yearling and made a winning start for Charlie Appleby at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last summer; however, he didn't build on that and he was pulled up in a nursery on his final outing; sold for just 25,000gns in February, gelded and probably best watched on debut for a new stable.

Won on debut on the other Newmarket course (7f, good to firm) last month then kept on for third under a penalty when odds-on for Leicester novice (7f, good); the step up in trip looks a firm plus on nursery debut (his dam was second in the Oaks) and his trainer has won the last two runnings.

125-1-winner of 7f Newbury novice but he backed it up with a solid third of five in 1m York handicap later in the autumn on his final run for Richard Hannon; gelded/changed hands for 48,000gns since and needs considering for his new yard.

Left his first two runs (1m, good/heavy) miles behind to win at 125-1 at Newbury (7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; has an attractive pedigree, so that latest performance is unlikely to be a one-off, and he has the potential to be better than this opening mark.
