Nicely progressive at two and reappeared with a striking defeat of subsequent winner Skukuza at Newmarket's Guineas meeting (1m, good) when leading 2f out and merely kept up to his work; the handicapper was sufficiently impressed to raise him 9lb but it's hard to gauge the ceiling of his ability. |
