Second in a maiden here last September; best form in valuable sales races (also 7f) on next two outings but nowhere near repeating it in his two starts this term; hampered early in a York handicap last time (7f; 22-1) and this is a major rethink on his trip, but none too persuasive.
Made most to win 1m novices on AW at Kempton in September and Southwell in March; that perfect start was followed by a lesser front-running effort at Epsom (8.5f, good) on turf/handicap debut but he looks bred for 1m2f.
Bright start to career on AW included a novice win at Chelmsford (1m2f) in December and short-head handicap win at Southwell (1m) in April; however, he was put firmly in his place on turf debut at Newmarket (good to firm) four weeks ago when a return to 1m2f should have suited.
Benefited from the runner-up hanging sharply left when narrow winner of 1m novice at Southwell (AW) in January on debut; outsider of five when he finished last in novice at Yarmouth (1m2f, good; bred to stay) seven weeks ago, behind talented rivals but it did not advertise his claims; gelded before this handicap debut.
Minor honours over 1m at Newmarket (good) and Windsor (good to firm) on first two starts, before a lesser show under 7lb claimer on latest outing; one to note stepped up to 1m2f for this handicap debut.
