Produced a strong finish when making a winning debut at Salisbury (7f, good; 4-1) last October; held in fourth of 13 on recent Kempton return (1m, Polytrack), but that was a hot novice and he made a bold bid from the front; sets a good standard on that form and she should improve for the run; respected.
