Fair 2-y-o winner for Charlie Johnston. Made a sound start for new yard in 7f handicaps at Lingfield and Kempton in May but needs to bounce back from a poor run at Newmarket since.

has reacted well to a visor in recent starts, winning 7f Haydock handicap (good to firm) 22 days ago. A 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing.

Ended his 2-y-o season with a 7f Chelmsford nursery success in December. Off 6 months, might have needed the run when seventh of 10 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 30 days ago. Blinkers back on with a tongue tie added for the first time.

Has yet to fire in 4 6f outings since coming over from Ireland. It remains to be seen whether this step back up in trip makes a difference.
