Form & Verdict
2-1, went very freely but still made a promising start when third of seven in maiden at Ascot (7f, soft) on his debut in September; this son of Night Of Thunder fetched 500,000gns as a yearling and seems sure to do better, especially if proving more tractable.

T: George Scott

Promise on 2yo debut (7f, soft) here last September; returned from 227 days off to win a 6f AW Lingfield maiden by daylight in April and followed up at the same track one month later; found things happening a bit too quickly for him when thrown into the lion's den in the King Charles III here last month but he was drawn lower than ideal; this should be more manageable and he remains a sprinter of interest.

Wide-margin winner of both 6f starts, on Lingfield AW and in a turf novice on that course; has potential but also a mighty task trying to cross the chasm into a Group 1 against the pros on first 5f run.

J: David Egan

T: George Scott

500,000gns yearling; well backed ahead of his 7f debut (soft) last backend, when inclined to pull hard and not seeing it out behind a useful rival; built on that on his 6f AW comeback here, when impressive from the front; plenty of potential and holds a Group 1 entry.

It took him nine attempts to get off the mark, justifying even-money favouritism in a maiden at Salisbury (6f, good) three weeks ago; however, a case can be made judged on his Listed second at Redcar (6f, good to soft) last October; not discounted.

Finished second in the Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy (6f, good to soft; Listed) last October, form that would give him strong claims in this field; beaten as 4-9 favourite at Lingfield on his reappearance (6f, AW) but the winner there could be useful; should be involved once again.
