Made up ground when 4th last run at Salisbury and has a positive draw. Has a nice turn of foot. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Gave a strong sight when 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L last time at Newmarket and was a debutant last start. Will be positive in the run early. Looks good for a place at least.
