Not yet off the mark but he's gone close on his last two starts and he came from well back to go close over C&D last week, the pair well clear; has every chance off the same mark.

14-race maiden; close over C&D and at Musselburgh (1m4f) on two of his last three outings, with a strong finish last time; his only two runs on soft ground (both this term, including penultimate start) are a worry.

Made debut on June 11th and down the field at big odds on all three runs (7f); however, there's potential in his pedigree and his half-brother Autumn Festival left his first three runs behind to win for this yard on handicap debut in 2022, when attracting market support; interesting.

Reportedly suited by the return to turf (just his fourth attempt and comfortably his best form on grass) when bouncing back to form at Bath in May (11.5f); another fair effort at Windsor six weeks ago; has run well over C&D in the past and he's not discounted.

No sign of ability in two bumpers or three Flat novice events on AW when trained by Brian Rothwell; of no interest armed with just that evidence, but the fact he's being persevered with and making his debut for Julie Camacho does offer hope he can do better; hood added; check betting.
