Up 7lb but this trip now looks plausible after his breakthrough win at Newmarket (1m2f)

Clearcut win at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) with front two clear; promising handicap debutant

Favourite for handicap/seasonal debut at Kempton (1m4f, AW; 6 ran) and went down by a neck

Could not hold a candle to winner in 3-runner Oaks Trial but this looks a reasonable mark
7 (3)	Atlantic Sunset br J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Charlie Johnston	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Charlie Johnston	125	b	9-2242	74	91	47	13d	—	—	+1	7.7	16/1 6%

Third to a hot favourite at Chester (1m4f; 28-1) on handicap/turf debut gives her a shout
