A three-time juvenile winner (including 5f York nursery); better form in defeat this season, prominent for a long way when a very good third of 14 in 6f handicap at Hamilton two weeks ago; interesting reverting to 5f.

Made all in 6f Hamilton maiden for Karl Burke as 2yo; has run well in defeat for new yard since, if lacking the pace to get involved when a persevering third at Catterick (5f, good) last month; withdrawn at Yarmouth on Wednesday on account of unsuitable ground (good).
