Soon in a clear lead and perhaps stole a four-runner race at Ayr (1m7f, good to firm) on seasonal debut, belatedly opening his account; however, he backed up that performance with a clear second at Carlisle (1m6f, soft) a fortnight later and remains well handicapped on some of last year's form.

Well-bred colt who was close third of four in slowly run contest at Haydock (7f, good to soft; 11-10f) a fortnight ago; that form is tricky to evaluate but, if his pedigree is a guide, a stronger pace over this trip ought to show him in a better light.
