J: Tom Marquand

T: Michael Appleby

Tough-hearted sprinter; more than a match for most 5f sprinters, whatever the place or ground, although speed is his weapon and he found less than Asfoora in the King Charles III at Ascot in June before gaining his revenge at Goodwood, where Asfoora ran under a penalty; slight query about whether this is absolutely his track, having run poorly in this last year and been just workmanlike against lesser rivals on return; otherwise hard to fault.

J: Tom Marquand

T: Michael Appleby

Versatile ground-wise; very productive and speedy colt whose 2yo campaign culminated in Breeders' Cup win; defied top weight in Listed grade on reappearance, then creditable third in the Royal Ascot event won by Asfoora; this return to a sharper 5f looks ideal, indeed he made all in the Molecomb at this meeting 12 months ago; respected.

Mostly leads; handles all ground; had one off day as a 2yo, against the older sprinters at York, but otherwise carried all before him over 5f after his debut, his rivals not detaining him for long in the Windsor Castle here and he won two Group races before hanging on for a Grade 1 success in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint; did all that was asked against inferior rivals on York comeback but now needs to prove his mettle back against all ages.

Flopped in Nunthorpe over C&D last August but excelled otherwise last season, with front-running wins over 5f (various ground) at Royal Ascot, Glorious Goodwood and Doncaster before scoring at the Breeders' Cup; will be very tough to beat under 5lb penalty if anywhere near his best on reappearance.
