Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Ryan Sexton| T: Miss J A Camacho

14/1

Promising sort. Disappointed in Sandown listed race when last seen in May but had made a winning start at Newmarket (5f) previously and warrants respect on return/debut for new yard (gelded and left Charlie Appleby).

Made winning debut over C&D in September and improved on that when second of 12 in minor event at Redcar (7f, good) the following month. Gelded since and likely has more to offer yet.

Once-raced maiden. Evens, ninth of 12 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, soft) on debut. Off 11 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving G. M. Lyons. Should improve (gelded since) and is worth monitoring in market on stable debut.

Forecasts

Gressington (30/100), Imperial Express (13/2), General Assembly (17/2), Johnny Thunder (17/2), On Point (14/1), I Predict A Riot (25/1), Joe Gargery (33/1), Mutaad (66/1), King Of Codes (66/1), Daring Leader (150/1), Maythetwistremain (150/1), Hector's Left Foot (200/1), Dandycan (200/1)

There should be more to come from GRESSINGTON this term and he is taken to make a winning return. Imperial Express and On Point rate the principal dangers.
