Progressive gelding; 3-3 last term, latest success in Longchamp Group 2; respected

Defied top weight in Lincoln; 2-2 on heavy; well worth a crack at Group level

Useful on his day but not in the same league as stablemate Adayar

Four-time winner at this level but he's an 8yo now and this looks a difficult task
