• Pos 4 25 Jul Ascot

  Raced in a handy position and moved into fourth before halfway - asked for effort inside two furlongs with a genuine opportunity to be involved - driven inside the last but unable to land a blow on the winner - hampered late and slipped back through the field close home

• Pos 1 13 Jun York

  Settled in the pack - briefly short of room inside the final 2f - switched into a gap 1f out - finished with a strong burst to win going away

• Pos 1 15 May Newbury

  Took a strong hold in midpack early - pushed along approaching final two furlongs - a touch unfurnished under pressure a furlong out - drifted left inside the last - went in front close home - kept on to prevail

• Pos 1 29 Dec Newcastle (AW)

  Settled midpack early - improved into contention approaching final furlong - hit front with a furlong left - pulled away to the line - impressive success
