Form & Verdict

Won on debut at Kempton (7f, AW) in May; third of six in Group 2 Superlative Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good) followed by second of 11 in Group 3 Acomb at York (7f, good to firm) so he's one of the top two in this field on form and it looks as if 1m will suit.

Won by a neck on debut at Kempton (7f, AW) in May and third of six in Group 2 Superlative Stakes at Newmarket last month (7f, good), keeping on well to be beaten just over 3l; it's very early days and he could be capable of better still but such improvement is necessary this afternoon.

Kameko colt who is out of half-sister to a 2yo Group 2 winner; belied his 28-1 odds in 7f AW contest at Kempton, sticking on well to hold on by a neck despite hanging right; well down this pack on bare figures but is open to progress.

From a family that has served his notable owner-breeder so well; moved 3l clear from 1f out in a novice at Salisbury in July and made most, racing freely early on but keeping on well, when third of seven in Group 3 Solario at Sandown (again 7f on good) four weeks ago; looks set for further progress and has each-way claims.
