Ready winner at Kempton in December and holds an entry in the 2,000 Guineas

Off since ready Goodwood success last May but still potentially useful

Promise over 7f/1m on turf last year; has been gelded; almost certainly has more to offer

Form of last month's 1m Southwell race modest and vulnerable is this much stronger race
