Made it 0-10 since winning on debut over C&D last May when underwhelming at Leicester 19 days ago; however, he was in good form previously, finishing 3l fifth of 14 over 7f here (good) earlier last month when not quite seeing out the trip; edging down the weights and could be involved.

Successful 2yo debut and later close up in a 6f York handicap (good to firm) last August; best effort since when beaten about 1l at Newmarket in April but the step up to 7f back at York last time wasn't a particular positive, even though he ran perfectly well in fifth of 14; major contender back at 6f on drying ground.

Made a winning debut in 6f novice event at this meeting last year; has become quite exposed kept to sprinting since but this combination of new trip and return to the Dante festival may have a positive effect.

Came to hand early last year, winning a York novice on debut before finishing second in the Listed National Stakes at Sandown; only sixth in the C&D handicap won by Sovereign Spell 16 days ago and he needs that run to have brought him on significantly.

Good seventh of 19 at the York Ebor festival (6f) in sole handicap attempt but is a tad exposed, as record of 0-6 since debut success reflects; below-par third of four in conditions race on final 2yo start.
