Wet track forecast is positive. Has produced big G1 runs on SOFT and HEAVY, but he handles GOOD too.

I love the way he has extended to the line in his early starts. He's a colt with a robust frame and stout pedigree that could be worth following up in distance.

Best form has come when allowed to find his rhythm early before quickening and sustaining a strong run at them late. He has the turn-of-foot to make up ground off STEADY tempos.

He’s a gentle giant but he’s got so much ability. I don’t think they’ve got to the bottom of him, I think he’ll be better next preparation.

He looks to have strengthened up and come back a better horse again. They have given him the two light preps, the trainer and connections have done the right thing by him, so hopefully they get the rewards now.
