Arc All-Weather £1Million Bonus Returns Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Sent off 10-1 and showed some ability when fifth of 13 on his Southwell debut (6f, Tapeta) in August last year, but not seen since (gelded in the meantime); worth a market check.

Runner-up in two of his first three starts, the latest when beaten less than a length at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) last month (fifth has won since); major player.

Fifth of 11 on his York debut (6f, good) in May last year and third of six at Hamilton (6f, good) the following month, but off since (gelded in the meantime); closely related to a Tapeta winner and worth monitoring in the market; hood worn on both previous starts now removed.

Runner-up in both starts over this trip on Tapeta last month, possibly paying for early keenness when beaten at 5-6 at Newcastle on the second occasion; major player again, especially if settling better.

1,500gns yearling; dam 5f 2yo winner (RPR 77), half-sister to 5f/6f winner Twilight Madness and 6f-1m winner Rocket Power, out of 5f/6f winning half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Illuminate; would be a very rare winning newcomer from the stable.
