Looked a smart prospect when running away with a Kempton novice last November (6f) and again when making all at Doncaster on his handicap debut in May (6f, good to firm; hooded first time); low-key runs twice since (Royal Ascot on first occasion) but the potential remains for a bigger effort at some point; stall 12 not ideal though.
Eight-time turf winner, the latest a fine front-running effort at Chester (7f, heavy) last month; only midfield in the Ayr Silver Cup a fortnight ago; shaped well in one AW run in April (seasonal debut); widest draw off-putting though.
Not beaten far at Ascot on his seasonal return four weeks ago but that race was run at a crawl and shouldn't be taken too seriously; should be sharper with that behind him though and not handicapped out of things on last year's best.
Three wins, all over 7f, the latest a front-running win in a small field at Chelmsford six weeks ago; more needed to dominate some fast horses back at 6f.
Getting it all together in handicaps now, following his Doncaster win with an excellent second to a flourishing filly in the Ayr Silver Cup two weeks ago; 3lb higher today but he's on the way up.
Good record on AW, including a C&D win, and he was better than ever when leading late at Lingfield three weeks ago (5f); up to a career-high mark now but it may not be beyond him.
Speedy front-runner; has a C&D win on her record and she's scored twice on turf this summer, the second win coming off 2lb higher; in better form than her numbers suggest since but there is other pace to contend with in this field.
Made a winning debut at Newcastle (6f) in November and followed up over C&D one month later; absent for ten months but he's an unknown quantity now handicapping; the market usually a good guide to expectation levels where the yard, who also run Azure Angel, are concerned.
Came good at Newmarket a fortnight ago (6f, good to firm), picking up well from off the pace; this should be run to suit and a 2lb rise doesn't look excessive; good claims.
The stars aligned at Musselburgh last time, overcoming trouble in running to narrowly win a 5f handicap; no doubt he has the ability to feature off his revised mark but he wouldn't be an obvious one to follow up.
