Promising first 6f run when winning on Chelmsford AW as 2yo but missed all of 2024; returned from more time off with a narrow win in a big field at Thirsk (6f, good) last month for new yard; penalty to carry (up the same amount in future) but suspicion he'll prove better than this mark in time; the state of the ground is an issue though, unraced on slower than good.

Below par at Thirsk (6f, good) last Friday and unproven at 7f; however, he's produced some strong finishes over 6f this term and is not discounted.

Campaigned mostly over 6f but latest effort, when hinting at a revival in first-time visor, suggests this return to 5f is worth exploring; recorded sole handicap success off current mark (last autumn).

Won in a big field at Newbury (6f, soft) last October but down the field on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is necessary in a first-time visor (replacing blinkers).

Useful form as a 2yo but struggled in his three runs last season; sold out of Alice Haynes's stable for 22,000gns last October; likely to come good for new connections off a reduced mark but this looks a pretty stiff task after eight months away.
