Brocklesby winner who appeared to run well in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot most recently; no certainty to back up that form, having posted his worst effort in C&D Listed event (behind Bill The Bull) on penultimate outing.

Kept on well to win the Brocklesby at Doncaster on debut in March (5f, good to soft); put in his place in a conditions event and the Listed National Stakes since; stepping up to 6f can help but it needs to.

Won the Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, good to soft) in March and beaten only 1l when third of three to Adaay Of Scarlett at Ascot four weeks ago (5f, good to firm; same terms today); something to find with the winner but might not be far away.

J: Sean Levey

T: Richard Hannon

9-2 chance when fending off Dance A Jig by just under a length in the Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, good to soft); showed a good attitude and the Hannon youngsters often improve with racing, but he does have to concede 3lb to the runner-up whose effort was a tad more eyecatching.
