Sent off favourite when winning by a neck on debut at Catterick (7f, soft) last Wednesday; faces much tougher opposition today but this 130,000euros half-brother to the stable's Group 3 winner Marshman is a likeable prospect who could have lots more to offer; possible contender.

He finished a neck second in C&D novice (soft) last October and he bettered that effort when taking C&D handicap (good to firm; made all to beat Masaban) in July; hasn't matched that in three subsequent starts elsewhere but he evidently likes this place and is just 1lb above that winning mark; of interest.

Has given superb value since the autumn, winning five 6f handicaps on the AW between October and January; even better in turf sprints since, landing a 6f handicap on the Rowley course here (good to firm) and finishing strongly to take second on his side to a handicap blot in the big 5f race at Royal Ascot; rock solid to go well back at 6f.
