Ended last season with two Pattern wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in trip after being tried over middle distances; upset in stalls and withdrawn on intended seasonal debut at Leopardstown; dropped away tamely in the Queen Anne; may have needed the run and will be hard to beat if recapturing his best form.

Ballydoyle colt who was withdrawn last month on intended reappearance, having got upset in the stalls; ended last season with two Group wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in distance; looks a potential threat in this division this term but, being the only seasonal debutant in the field, the market signals may prove the best guide.

C&D Group 2 winner at two; experienced a couple of reverses last season after a creditable fourth in the Poulains; floundered in testing conditions in the Prix du Jockey-Club and failed to stay 1m4f in the King Edward VII Stakes; redeemed himself with a handsome 1m1f at this venue and signed off with an emphatic C&D win from Mutasarref.

midfield, good headway and prominent after 1f, went second after 2f, pushed along and led over 1f out, ridden and ran on well inside final furlong

Won Group 2 over a mile on Irish Champions Weekend in September before disappointing in heavy-ground Group 1 at Doncaster; beaten less than a length from a bad draw in the French 2,000 Guineas but couldn't sustain his effort when fading to midfield in the Prix du Jockey Club; well fancied for Royal Ascot Group 2 over 1m4f but weakened tamely in the straight; bringing him back in trip looks an obvious move and, despite 5lb penalty, should go close at this level if anywhere near his best.
