Only made his debut last week when runner-up to a 1-4 chance at Wetherby (1m, good to firm); a line through the third gives him a fair bit to find with Conclave but this colt is clearly open to improvement.
Awarded his debut race after the first past the post weighed in light and that rival impressed next time out; this gelding also took a sizeable step forward back at Kempton (1m) when a clear second behind yesterday's 2,000 Guineas contender King's Trail; faces some interesting opponents here but might be up to the task.
Gelded after last season's run; highly unlikely that the 1-8 favourite gave his running when this son of Gleneagles beat him at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) but he's a well-bred improver and unexposed.
Sharp pedigree but was confined to 7f last season and made all second time out at York (good); mixed messages as to the strength of that form but he appeals as the type to do well as a 3yo.
Slims Pickins is most useful when you can move from this single-race view back to the wider board, compare races quickly, and decide where the edge is strongest.
