Royal Ascot Local Schools Art Competition Handicap

Now 0-6 but he's posted progressive RPRs when runner-up on all three starts since joining George Boughey; the form of his latest 1m2f Newmarket second has been boosted by subsequent wins for the third and fourth (the winner also a creditable third in a Listed race); if he can pull out only a little more for the addition of cheekpieces he could take a bit of stopping.

Had plenty to do turning for home but picked up well to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in December; bettered that form when fourth under a penalty in a stronger race at Southwell (1m) four months later; his pedigree suggests he should benefit from this longer trip on handicap and turf debut; likely improver.

Six-race maiden but he looked unlucky not to collect on his 1m3f Kempton reappearance in April, just failing have been denied a clear run; has looked a little ungainly on occasions but he's talented enough to win races.

In need of the experience but kept on well to collar the useful Generic close home on his 1m Kempton debut in March; only sixth to the same rival at Yarmouth (1m again) 17 days later but retains potential now handicapping; wears first-time cheekpieces.

Has advanced his RPR on all three starts in maiden/novice events, finishing 4l third to the useful Del Maro at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) four weeks ago; another in this line-up who likely has more to offer now moving into a handicap.
