Four wins for new stable since the autumn; latest 6lb rise asks quite a lot of him

Ran well in January, after a break, and has fighting chance in refitted visor here

Won three times over 9.4f here in 2025 but this drop back in trip is not ideal

Respectable sixth at Southwell in January but needs to find extra on this stable debut

In good form for new stable last summer but had gone off the boil by the autumn
3 (1)	He's A Gentleman Grey J:Jason Hart T:Hugo Palmer	J:Jason Hart T:Hugo Palmer	134	v	2129-7	74	88	75	42d	—	—	-1	8.7	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Safely held on last two 7f starts and needs to up his game

Looked badly out of sorts in the autumn, but still worth keeping an eye on in the betting
5 (8)	Billy Mill Bay J:Kieren Fox T:Rod Millman	J:Kieren Fox T:Rod Millman	130	—	97-188	70	88	78	18d	—	—	+2	6.1	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Won over 7f in January, after a break, but two very disappointing runs have followed
