Form & Verdict
Promising efforts on both starts, finishing second to an odds-on favourite in a Chepstow maiden (6f, soft) and keeping on well for third in a Kempton novice (6f, Polytrack) latest; plenty in his pedigree to suggest this extra furlong could induce improvement; player.

He was 1-16 when winning a weak novice at Chelmsford in November (7f, AW); hasn't kicked on from there and yet to get overly competitive in handicaps.

1-16 shot when he won a weak novice at Chelmsford in November (7f, AW) but he hasn't kicked on in three handicaps subsequently and it was a heavy defeat at Newbury 19 days ago; drop in grade with first-time cheekpieces the straws to clutch at.

Half-brother to seven winners, including Too Darn Hot (Group 1; RPR 125) and So Mi Dar (Group 3; 118); 4-1 on debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f, Tapeta) last December, when collared close home; can clearly go well when fresh and, with any improvement, he could prove tough to beat.

Has not finished closer than fifth in her eight starts, including two handicaps and two classified events for current yard; made some late headway in blinkers here (7f) last time but she needs improvement back up in trip.
