Still a maiden but he has finished second on three occasions (7.6f-1m2f) this year, the latest over 1m here last week; unraced on ground slower than good.

0-8 and his form since handicapping in April has been up and down, but he twice finished runner-up on the turf here (7.6f/1m2f); each-way claims if able to reproduce that form back on the AW.

Form & Verdict
220,000euros yearling; fourth foal; half-brother to winners Spinning Memories (6f/7f including Group 3; RPR 115), Ramazan (Listed-placed 5f-7f; 114) and Beach Road One (Swedish 7f-10.5f); dam unraced sister to US 6f-8.5f winner Memories Of Winter; lots to like on paper and he's a newcomer of considerable interest.

Shaped well amidst evident inexperience on his Chelmsford debut last November (6f); not so good on his reappearance in May but he was gelded and underwent wind surgery soon after that; back from a break with a fine second at Kempton two weeks ago (wore this combination of accessories for the first time); obvious claims with a repeat.

Well held in a warmer race at Brighton (6f, good to firm) last time, but was running well there before that including a win in a 0-50 classified event (5f, good); still relatively unexposed and shortlisted.

Had achieved little prior to springing a surprise in a 0-50 classified event over C&D two months ago; ran to a similar level, back up to 6f, here next time and this is no more competitive back into handicap company.
