Scored over C&D last October but is reasonably exposed now and faces a stiffer assignment in this field; came up well short in a notable 6f handicap back here last time.

Three 2yo wins, including here, and ran well when third of 14 at Hamilton (6f, good) last month; however, was no match for winning stablemate Red Spells Danger and has since finished unplaced at Thirsk; others preferred.

6f Hamilton winner on good ground under Oisin Murphy as a 2yo; however, never figured on Epsom reappearance (7f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) and subsequent Ffos Las second offers no proof that he's trained on given he was beaten 11l; Murphy is back on board now but it's not enough to tempt.

Won 2yo maiden at Hamilton (6f, good) last July on third outing and runner-up there (6f, good to soft) in September on second nursery start; that latest form was franked by the winner and every chance he'll continue to improve, but this is a tough starting point to his 3yo year; cheekpieces added.
