Form & Verdict
Fair form at around 7f on going ranging from good to firm to good to soft last year; below par when turned over at short odds over 6f on soft final start; reappears having been gelded; sure to be thereabouts if recapturing anywhere near the best of his 2yo form.

Won at Chester (7.5f, good to soft) in June and ran well off this 5lb higher mark when 1l fourth of 11 at Thirsk (1m, good) three weeks ago; further improvement can't be ruled out but it's necessary if he's to return to winning ways in this hotter contest.

Sole 3yo in this field; maiden last term; gelded prior to posting form figures of 131 (over 7f-1m) this season, the wins on sharp, left-handed tracks, namely Catterick (good) and Chester (good to soft); open to further improvement, should take well to Thirsk and receives weight all round; respected.

Off the mark on his sixth start when bagging Catterick maiden (7f) on his reappearance in April and it was a solid handicap debut when third at Haydock (1m, also good) one month later; latter form has been nicely advertised subsequently and he's on the shortlist.

Promise in defeat on all four 7f starts last year; the form of his penultimate third in a soft-ground novice at Ayr has worked out really well and he's capable of winning races in 2026.

He has not looked back since dropping to 6f in May, winning three times including an impressive success at the Shergar Cup at Ascot (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; two solid C&D runs on his record too but a 6lb rise since Ascot, allied to slower ground, could find him out; the only 3yo in the field and that age group have won the last two renewals.

Frankel colt out of a Group 2 winner; promise when placed over 6f at Doncaster (good) and 7f at Redcar (good to soft) last year; shaped particularly well at the latter venue given he lost plenty of ground at the start when his blindfold appeared to get stuck; definitely more to come.

J: Warren Fentiman

Fairly useful form when placed on first four starts, notably second of nine on 7.5f Beverley handicap debut (good to soft) in May; his run of consistent efforts came to an abrupt halt at Nottingham last time and cheekpieces are reached for on the back of that; shouldn't be far away if back to his best but still likely vulnerable to an improver.
