Won his only 2yo race (7f, AW) and blanket finish to a hot novice contest over C&D (good) four weeks ago saw him pipped by the subsequent Lingfield Derby Trial winner; second again in Listed race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) 15 days ago and, although connections reach for cheekpieces, he may well have been let in lightly on this handicap debut.
Basically progressive as 2yo, ending with best form over 1m2f/1m1f, and he reappeared with a creditable third of seven in 1m1f Listed race at Newmarket one month ago; after ten races, though, he may well be more exposed than a lot of today's rivals.
Won a Punchestown maiden (1m, good to yielding) in September on third start; came up short in his three subsequent races but they were all Group events (1m/1m1f) and he improved in terms of ratings; cheekpieces go on today; although his Derby entry may not mean a great deal, as he's one of 16 from his top stable, they won this race in 2023 and 1m2f+ can suit.
Yarmouth maiden winner who was fourth in a Group 3 at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) on his third 2yo start; put firmly in his place in Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) on reappearance but was 20-1 that day, may have needed the run and could be of more interest on this handicap debut.
Cost 340,000gns as a yearling, with dam a sister to dual Arc winner Treve; progressive in his three 2yo races, winning a novice at Kempton (7f, AW) before his rallying second in a notable conditions stakes here (1m, good to soft; just ahead of Bourbon Blues); gelded later; makes his reappearance but 1m2f+ should be a big help, so he's one to note.
