Created a fine impression on belated debut when winning 4-runner maiden at Salisbury by 7 lengths from a next-time-out winner in July and effortlessly followed up in a match at Yarmouth last month. Should improve now handicapping upped in trip.

Ran out a ready winner from his easing mark at Doncaster in August, finally proving fully effective at this trip. Backed that up when ½-length second of 7 to Hamlet's Night at Yarmouth (1¼m, good) 12 days ago despite conceding first run. Could still have some mileage from this mark.

Goes well round here and landed a second C&D success earlier in the month having edged below last winning mark. Cheekpieces are now added and can give another good account.
