3-3 in 2yo season (including Group 2); 0-7 since and below par in Tattersalls Gold Cup last month but all of those were Group 1 races and he's shown some very strong form, including when third in last August's Juddmonte International (10.2f, good to firm); his dam was a 1m4f winner so there can be hope that today's new trip will suit, and he's a major player if he stays; changed hands for £2,000,000 at Goffs London Sale on Monday (remains with Clive Cox).

Unbeaten as juvenile, including the Royal Lodge; kept to Group 1 company last year, smart form including two Classic fourth places; third behind City Of Troy in the Coral-Eclipse and the International at York; 3/4l behind Los Angeles (fourth) when fifth in the Irish Champion; made a fine start to the campaign with fourth behind race-fit rivals in Dubai Turf.

Unbeaten as a 2yo; good fourth in a strong 2,000 Guineas and only 2l behind City Of Troy in the Eclipse most recently, albeit possibly a tad flattered on ground that wasn't ideal for the winner; proving consistent in terms of bare form and likely to give another good account.
