Form & Verdict

Has shown ability in all three starts, not beaten far at Goodwood two weeks ago when he had plenty of use made of him; unlikely to fail for lack of stamina but he did have a hard race last time.

It was a four-runner race at Goodwood a fortnight ago (1m4f, soft; made all) in which he returned to winning ways, and he's 3lb higher in a hotter race here; however, this 4yo hasn't had much racing and could still have more to offer; ran well over C&D last September and he's not ruled out.
