Bumper winner in March but sixth of 9 in maiden at Lingfield (14/1) 6 days ago on Flat debut, very slowly away and never on terms. Looks quirky.

8/15
Won on debut in a novice race at Salisbury. Last of 6 in Group 2 at Newbury (4/1) 340 days ago, with testing soft ground likely explaining that below-form effort. Making AW debut stepping up to 7f on return and retains potential.

Third of 12 in a maiden at this course over 6f (5/2) 114 days ago, racing freely and lacking a response late on. Returns with a first-time hood after wind operation, stepping up to 7f which could suit. Big player.

SARAB STAR won impressively on debut a year ago before a forgivable below-par run in the Mill Reef on testing ground. He remains with potential and could make a successful return upped to 7f. Spitzbergen has shown plenty and returns with a hood after wind surgery, while the booking of Oisin Murphy on the well-bred newcomer My Fermoy catches the eye.
