Form & Verdict

Revealed little in his qualifying runs over much shorter trips but he lost out only near the line on handicap debut over 1m4f at Ripon before overpowering his rivals in a classified event at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) last week; goes unpenalised and is due a 5lb rise in future; now having first run on sand but dam has bred two AW winners; good claims.

In the frame three times since leaving maiden and novice company, including in 1m4f classified on Lingfield AW recently; this slightly shorter trip could help back on Tapeta but more needed; cheekpieces refitted.

Form & Verdict

Looked likely to benefit from a step up in trip when running best race for previous yard over 1m2f on Newcastle AW in February; however, was well held on yard debut at Kempton (1m4f, AW) and he just plugged on at one pace at Windsor (about 1m3f) in May.
