Form & Verdict

Not an immediate hit in handicaps but the step up to 2m saw him win twice on turf and once over C&D; foiled in the four-timer at Southwell but he lost nothing in a tenacious defeat to one who is now 3-3 at distances beyond 2m (first two well clear); up another 3lb but looks sure to go well.

J: Luke Morris

T: Sir Mark Prescott Bt

Typical improver from the yard who bids for a four-timer after two wins over 2m on turf and a particularly emphatic success at Kempton (2m, Polytrack); has been hit with another 10lb rise for that latest success, but folly to rule him out given the possibility of further progress.

A few costly defeats in early summer but has got it together since tackling this trip and may well have more to offer upped another 5lb on his AW debut (is a half-brother to a Polytrack winner); is shortlisted for a stable in its usual high-summer form.

Weighted to go well on his 2m form in early 2024 here and at Lingfield; an outsider for Ascot and York handicaps on turf this summer and has run accordingly but the return to Polytrack could see a better show.

Fourth in this race in 2022; back up to 2m on AW this January-April, holding his form well, but he faded right out of it at Ascot (2m, good) last month; perhaps being absent 107 days helps to explain that, but others are more persuasive.

Both wins have been on good to soft (juvenile events at Catterick and Southwell) and was only fourth of six when 4-9 on soft on previous run here in January (1m7f, pulled hard); however, came out second best of the English when tenth in the Boodles last time (heavy); a chance.
