Successful handicap debut at Musselburgh in April when making all off 4lb lower; below that level since, including when able to lead at Lingfield last time (1m1f, good to firm) on the back of a gelding operation.

Made all off 6lb lower round Musselburgh in April; has not been able to lead on either run since (fluffed the start at Beverley; said to have stopped quickly at Sandown a month ago) and has since been gelded; too soon to write him off.

Signed off last term by landing a Musselburgh maiden (7f) and reappeared at that track when making a winning handicap debut (1m, also good) in April; raised to this mark when only sixth at Beverley next time but softer conditions were a plausible excuse; not dismissed back on a sounder surface with William Buick taking over.

Ended 2025 with a second to the reopposing Willowinghurn on 7f Musselburgh handicap debut (soft); may have more to offer in 2026 but the betting is perhaps the best guide as to whether he's likely to be fully primed for this first outing in 196 days (has been gelded).
