250,000euros foal; closely related to a Listed-placed 1m winner; of obvious interest

260,000euros yearling; dam a well-related 6f AW winner (RPR 81); the betting should guide

Half-brother to two AW winners; worth a market check in a race lacking depth

Second run (C&D) was better than his debut; capable of further progress
