Listed runner-up on AW on second start and he holds leading form claims for top stable

Won at Newbury last month; further improvement needed but he should continue to progress

Purchase price catches the eye but tough task on this debut and she may want further

Dam 8.6f AW winner (RPR 70); makes debut in a hot novice and is probably best watched

Didn't show enough on last month's debut to suggest she'll be making an impact today
