Had a productive 2yo campaign, winning Listed race at Dundalk (7f, AW) and finishing third in Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to soft; behind Haatem) and second at the Breeders' Cup (1m, firm); well behind Haatem and River Tiber when only seventh of eight in the Irish 2,000 Guineas on reappearance and needs a big step forward from that.

Very smart colt won 6f maiden at this track last summer and ran creditably in pattern races after, including third to Haatem in Group 2 Vintage Stakes and second to stablemate, and today's rival, Unquestionable at the Breeders' Cup; won a Listed race at Dundalk in between; has a bit to find with some of these but can still be involved.
