Form & Verdict
Better with each of his four runs, all over 7f, latterly when not beaten far into fourth on his nursery debut early in the month; trainer's strike-rate with 2yos is up this season and he's one to consider in an open-looking affair.

Sole win on AW as a 2yo; had a rare off day at York in July but he's been in good form over 1m in his other starts this year, most recently back on the AW; not exactly ahead of his mark but likely to have a say.

Better since handicapping in cheekpieces (off today), going close at Leicester before inclined to over-race from the outside stall upped to this trip latest (Polytrack); holds decent claims as long as he settles better this time.

Came away with a subsequent dual winner on his nursery debut off 4lb lower last month; hard to know what happened when a detached last of five next time (no explanation offered) and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market on AW debut.

Trainer boasts an ordinary recent record with 2yos (0-10 with them here all told) but this filly has offered some hope, latterly when best of the rest behind a progressive winner on Polytrack; needs to find a bit more for the longer trip.
