Maiden who is proving consistent and ran creditably at Ascot (1m, good) most recently; should give his running but chance of winning largely depends on the effects of first-time headgear.

Respectable fourth in Newmarket handicap (1m) last time, without quite transferring his broadly progressive AW form back to turf; again has frame possibilities off an unchanged mark.
Comment
Broadly progressive on AW; respectable fourth at Newmarket returned to turf; still in form
Stable Tour
"He ran a huge race at the weekend, giving weight away. He could go for the 0-90 over a mile at the Guineas meeting and there will be loads of races for him. 02-04-26"

Made the frame at Newbury (6.5f/7f) in both 2yo starts and went down by only a neck at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) on reappearance; fairly solid handicap debutant, assuming he stays the new trip.

Prevailed narrowly in Yarmouth maiden (1m, good to firm) on seasonal debut, building on his 2yo AW efforts; this thrice-raced colt looks the type who could improve further and do well in handicaps; respected.

Showed ability over 7f on AW last year, notably when close second (in front of Euston Hall) at Kempton; gelded since last run; may be capable of progress now handicapping in a new scenario; one to consider.

Showed fairly useful form over 7f last term, including success in Newbury conditions race (good to soft) against her own sex; sister to a 1m winner; could go well, returned to this venue.
Comment
Bred to stay this new trip; could go well returned to the scene of her conditions race win
Quotes
"We might come back for the Listed Radley Stakes at the end of October, although it will depend on the ground. There's a Listed race on the all-weather in France that we could also look at. It would be lovely to get some black type before the year ends. Tavana is a big filly, so who knows where the ceiling is with her. She tries very hard and she has such a willing attitude, so I hope she can be our flagbearer, unless we find something even better, which would be even better! - Edward Smyth-Osbourne, trainer."

Seemed to run well in notable conditions race over C&D on penultimate 2yo start but needs to prove he can back up that form, hence could be on a difficult mark; gelded over the winter.

Needs to prove his apparent best 2yo effort can be backed up; gelded over the winter
