Progressive 3yo for Andrew Balding in the first half of last year, culminating in a win in the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm); changed hands for 775,000gns the following month; failed to settle and shaped as though he needed the run when a nevertheless-respectable sixth on last month's comeback and stable debut at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft); the first-time hood could help and he's an intriguing contender.

Unraced on softer than good; London Gold Cup third at Newbury last May was a promising start to handicap life and he built on that with a last-gasp win from out the back at Royal Ascot (again 1m2f on good to firm); unraced since, having left Andrew Balding for 775,000gns that July and been gelded in September; 7lb higher than at Royal Ascot but he's had just six races.

Came up well short in two valuable conditions stakes races on AW (having won a maiden) but the London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago was a step forward, rather outpaced by the winner 2f out but keeping on well to go down by under 2l; up 2lb but more to offer.
