Won a Leicester maiden (7f, good to firm) on his second start but he's not gone on from that and has finished last of five in two AW nurseries (7f/1m); cheekpieces are now added and he needs to significantly raise his game back in trip.

Placed in 6f novice events at Newbury and Windsor and he had a tough task in valuable sales race at the Curragh last month; this is more realistic on nursery debut and she needs a close look on this step back up in trip.

Won his first two nurseries (5f/6f, good/AW) but he's taken backward steps in last two starts and was beaten around 8l at Redcar (6f, good to soft) last week; the slow ground may have been an issue but he needs to resume his progress at this new trip.

Showed promise in two of his three qualifying runs including when a front-running fourth of ten at Wolverhampton (6f, AW; 11-4 favourite) two weeks ago; now takes another step up in trip but he should have more to offer in nurseries and is bred to be better than this opening mark.

Not beaten far in five of her six races, including a Newbury nursery and Brighton maiden (both at 7f) in last two starts; should go well again but she's not progressed so far and needs to find more to make the breakthrough.
