Ability in five juvenile starts for Denis Quinn, going closest when beaten a neck at Southwell (6f fillies' maiden; 50-1) in October 2024; returns to action for a new trainer off a 478-day absence; best watched unless the market speaks favourably.

Frequent slow-starter who's run well a few times over C&D without winning and is on a handy mark; fared best of the near-side group at York before a solid effort from a wide stall at Wolverhampton; goes on the shortlist under Billy Loughnane.

Bids for his third straight win in this race, 2lb higher than for his 2024 win and 1lb higher than 12 months ago; slow starts have been an issue in recent outings but he retains ability and it will be no surprise to see him go well with cheekpieces now given a go.

Form & Verdict
Back-to-back wins at Hamilton last September (6f); regular cheekpieces were left off for return and he shaped as if needing the run; can build on that in refitted headgear here; last AW run (over C&D) was his best effort on an artificial surface.

Doubled his tally in Leger Legends race at Doncaster last September (comfortably made all at 40-1 despite going as far as 1m for the first/only time); just one run of note since but he did show more spark latest on his second run back from a break, in first-time blinkers (retained); not ruled out if taking to AW at the first attempt.
