Form & Verdict
Novice and nursery-winning juvenile (6f, good to firm) who often didn't have things go his way subsequently until he won going away at Kempton (6f, AW) last month; wasn't totally handling the track when narrow second at Epsom last Wednesday and he's an obvious contender off this mark (due a 2lb rise).

Won at Kempton (6f, AW) last month before near-miss at Epsom (6f, good), and back on the scoresheet with ready win here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; under a 3lb penalty this progressive 3yo is 5lb ahead of the handicapper today, and he showed promise over 7f last season; major player.

Only seventh when favourite for this race last year; posted two successive career bests on AW in February and March but those efforts haven't been matched since, on the last three occasions in turf handicaps; drops in grade with cheekpieces added to his tongue-tie.

Started the season with a C&D win on good in May; also a good third over C&D (good to firm) in July; one of his slowish starts left him with too much ground to make up over 5f at the Shergar Cup here last time but he finished strongly and needs considering back at 6f.

His three good runs this year have all come at Ascot, winning in May (6f, good) and doing best of those in the stands' side group when sixth behind All Ways Glamorous here two weeks ago (cheekpieces on for the first time; first 5f run since 2024); can get it wrong at the start but he has races in him off this mark.

In good form since returning to turf in the spring, getting the better of Silver Ghost to score at Newmarket (good) in May before solid third on the July course (again 7f, good to firm) the following month; just caught out by a drop to 6f when fourth at Ascot 19 days ago but that form is working out well; player back at 7f with William Buick taking over.

Four wins at 6f for previous yard but he was far from disgraced when seventh of 28 in 7f Victoria Cup here (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; drawn on the wrong side when he finished last at the Royal meeting but he's dropped to a handy mark and shouldn't be discounted on this return to 6f.

Progressive 2yo/3yo; he has faced some stiff tasks for his new yard this year and has come up short; his sights are lowered here, however, and 6f on fast ground won't faze him; respected now down into a 0-90 with headgear dispensed with.

Yet to score this season but latest two placings in big York handicaps have been career-bests, most recently strong-finishing third (beaten little over 1l) of 20 behind Sondad after being switched; 4lb better off with that rival so certainly has his chance.

Style of racing leaves him a hostage to fortune but he has the ability to win a big prize when things pan out favourably; latest C&D second has been well advertised since and he wasn't well drawn there; 2lb rise should be fine and he has form on slow ground; one to consider.
