J: Cian Horgan

T: Edward Bethell

Lightly raced 4yo who won a Hamilton maiden (1m3f) and handicap (1m5f) on his first two starts of last year; finished tailed off in the Melrose over C&D next time, however, and he weakened quickly before being dismounted at Musselburgh on his comeback; difficult to suggest after that.

Won small-field races at Hamilton for a maiden (1m3f, good to firm) last May and handicap (1m5f, good) last July; seriously raised in class when tailed-off last at 14-1 in the Melrose Handicap at York (1m6f, good to firm; again sweating) last August, but he could be of renewed interest on this reappearance for an in-form yard.

Much respected on his form for Alan King, for all that he was 1-22 for that yard; following a 30,000gns sale he ran okay over C&D on last month's stable debut, but no more than that.

Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat.

Probably best known for Musselburgh exploits but last two wins were at Nottingham last October and Carlisle last month; below form on sole start here (last October) but probably best forgiven being well beaten 17 days ago as that was just 1m3f; chief concern is that he needs another career best.

Off the mark at the ninth attempt in a 2m handicap at Dundalk (2m, Polytrack) in December; this season he's been a never-dangerous eighth to Shrimp Shady at Chester (2m2f) and helped set the pace when sixth of 18 at Fairyhouse (1m6f; just 4-1), not discredited in either but a prominent finish in today's race would be much his best handicap performance.
