Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: C G CoxWS

2/5

Shaped well up against one with experience when of 9 in maiden at Kempton (6f, 7/2) on debut in January, sticking on despite being carried left and intimidated by the winner in the closing stages. Looks sure to progress and every chance he can go one better (had a wind op).

Forecasts

Nemov (2/5), The Amazon (7/2), Perianth (11/2), Balmoral Lady (7/1), Idle Assembly (8/1), Hector (50/1), Ash Wednesday (80/1), Two B Tanned (100/1), Ayurveda (100/1)

There was plenty to like about NEMOV's debut effort when pulling clear with an experienced rival (who has won twice since) at Kempton back in January, so he's taken to go a place better on the back of a breathing operation. The Amazon and Perianth look his main dangers.
