Second of two efforts on the AW, when fourth of 12 over 1m½f at Wolverhampton, beaten 3L, was much his best, although he did finish a couple of places behind Gembari. Stayed on well inside the final furlong and this greater test of stamina may suit.
Showed signs of ability in three maidens, but finished down the field behind Gembari and Urban Soul on nursery debut at Wolverhampton. Needs this greater staying test to eke out improvement.
Showed little on first five starts, but was much better in a first-time visor when second at Wolverhampton last time with Urban Soul and Global Wonder behind. Headgear retained and will be interesting to see if he can back up that effort.
All five races have been on turf and the last of them saw him finish 13th of 20, beaten 5¾L in a Newmarket nursery. Has stamina on the dam's side of his pedigree and is an interesting contender in first-time cheekpieces.
Three quiet runs in novice auction company preceded a 33-1 win in a nursery handicap at Newcastle. Rise of 3lb is fair and breeding suggests this extra distance should be within her compass.
Still looking for his first win after nine starts, but has performed well to finish in the frame on his last four starts, the latest on the AW at Wolverhampton. Creeping up the weights, but seems to stay well enough and has to be considered.
Promise on first two starts before returning from a break and finishing well behind at Newcastle last month. Handicap debut with stamina to prove, but is from a top stable and is worth a check in the market.
Forecasts
Progressive Jazz (9/4), Urban Soul (4/1), Global Wonder (9/2), Gembari (5/1), Prince Consort (8/1), Trick Shot Jenny (8/1), Miss Van Winkle (16/1)
Quite an interesting nursery with most of the runners having stamina to prove. Progressive Jazz has already done so, but has been going up in the weights for not winning and may be vulnerable to a less exposed type. Trick Shot Jenny has to enter calculations after her win at Newcastle and Miss Van Winkle is an interesting contender on handicap debut for her top stable. However, the choice is PRINCE CONSORT, who was not disgraced in a nursery at Newmarket last time and may benefit from this stamina test in first-time cheekpieces. Gembari should confirm recent form with Urban Soul and Global Wonder.
- Prince Consort
