All four starts on AW; won at Kempton (7f) in January on third run and narrowly followed up in four-runner handicap at Southwell (1m); further improvement is necessary but he's in good hands to continue to progress.

Goodwood Galaxy

Won on debut at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last June and kept on for fourth in Group 2 Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good) next time; ran okay in quality conditions race at Newbury (1m, good to soft) in September when last seen but he needs to prove he can cut it off this lofty mark.

Organise

Impressive on debut at Southwell (7f, AW) last November and made it 2-2 in Yarmouth novice (1m, good) on recent reappearance; his inexperience was still evident last time and this well-bred colt could have lots more left in the tank for last year's winning yard; key player on handicap debut.

Suspended Sentence

Won Ripon novice (1m, good to firm) last August on third start then followed up in four-runner nursery over this C&D (soft); creditable Listed fourth in France (1m, soft) in September but returns to a handicap off a mark 13lb higher than for his course win; further improvement needed.
