★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 5 11 Jul York

    Quick into stride - sat behind the pace and was shaken up inside 3f out - unable to make ground and weakened over the final furlong

  • Pos 6 13 Jun York

    Held up at the back - urged into effort with 2f left - unable to land a blow - well held in 6th

  • Pos 4 28 May Sandown

    Settled in the pack early - lost touch with the front group over 2f out then found renewed energy under pressure inside the final furlong - finished 4th staying on well

  • Pos 3 15 May York

    Settled sixth early - crept into contention with two furlongs left - driven into the front before being overtaken inside the final furlong - edged back out of the places late - finished without finding more
