Had plenty of chances now (0-10) but he hasn't always enjoyed the best of luck in showing useful form, as was again the case when third in a competitive 1m3f handicap at Glorious Goodwood (first-time blinkers); he's the standout danger to the regally-bred newcomer Partying.

1m4f didn't help when creditable seventh at Royal Ascot; runner-up in all his other five races this season, which could be construed as hard luck but blinkers now replace the recent cheekpieces after his defeat in a Yarmouth maiden last time; others have more pressing claims.

Form & Verdict
In at the deep end when sixth on his debut last September, in a 1m Newbury conditions event, and it spoke in his favour that he started among the favourites; it will be interesting to see how this 300,00gns foal goes in the market this time after ten months off.

Stepped forward from his debut when third of six at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) last month and built on that when winning over 1m4f at Southwell two weeks ago; looks the type to continue to progress and he's of obvious interest on his handicap debut.

Stayed on well from the rear to finish third of six in a Yarmouth maiden (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago on his first outing since last September; looks sure to improve again on this step up in trip on AW debut.

Form & Verdict
Second on debut last autumn; comeback run on Tapeta was too bad to be true and she got back on track upped to this trip (good to firm) last time when beaten a neck at Doncaster; the sex allowance brings her into the equation for an in-form yard, under William Buick (10-43 for them).

280,000gns purchase as a yearling; hasn't gone on as anticipated from a promising debut, fading and beating only one home in maiden at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; still early days but she has something to prove.
