Got off the mark in Britain over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield (good) in May; runner-up on all three outings since, on the latest proving well suited by a marked step up to 2m4f at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm); still unexposed as a stayer.

French win in 2022; this is his second season in Britain, with best of those efforts on last three starts when winning at Lingfield and going close at Goodwood and Salisbury; still looked a rising force last time but those three runs were all over about 1m4f and he's never raced beyond that, so today's 2m4f race involves a large dose of guesswork.

Enhanced good strike-rate in handicaps when well on top at Nottingham (2m) and Pontefract (2m2f) on first two starts this season; paid the price for a rapid forward move when favourite in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle only six days after Pontefract; freshened up since and no surprise were he to resume his progress.

Can front-run; 6-9 in handicaps, well on top at Nottingham (2m) and Pontefract (2m2f) in his two starts this season; Hollie Doyle now rides him for the first time; his only two AW races came before he was handicapped and he has 5lb penalty as a result of last Sunday's win; a repeat of his slow start that day wouldn't be ideal in this large field but this progressive sort is very much one to note.

Relished the step up to 2m when winning at Ascot (good) in July and shaped quite well considering a drop back to 1m6f didn't look ideal when sixth of 16 in the ultra-competitive Melrose at the York Ebor meeting (good to firm) four weeks ago; cheekpieces are added and he's faced with stamina test which should play to his strengths; leading claims for last year's winning yard.
