Won Ffos Las maiden (7.3f, heavy) last September on seventh start, when going beyond 6f for first time, and he followed up in last-gasp fashion in valuable EBF Final at York (7f, good); denied a clear run when mid-division in handicap at Newbury (7f, good; 12-1) on reappearance and the step up to nearly 1m looks a very good move; one to note.

Had become exposed over sprint trips but his form took off when upped to 7f+ on his final two runs as a 2yo, following his Ffos Las maiden win with a last-ditch success in a York sales race in October; gelded since; making his handicap debut on his eighth start but he looks on an appealing mark.

Placed twice in the mud last September (made most on second occasion) before running on but never getting in a serious blow when 13-8 favourite for handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in November, still looking capable of better; had wind and gelding operations this spring; one to check out for a yard which had two notable well-backed winners last week.

Showed promise with seventh of 16 at York (7f, good; 9-2 shot) and did well in the circumstances, having looked very green and kept on from a difficult position; interesting with improvement on the cards.

Near-6l third at Ffos Las latest represented only the tiniest step forward on RPRs, but she didn't fail for stamina upped to 7.5f on heavy ground there; yard has had a clutch of 2yos with prior experience hitting the mark already this month, and she remains of real interest accordingly.
