When this tough colt left for the Dubai Carnival this year, he was rightly regarded as one of the better juvenile maidens of 2011. Form behind such as Rockinante and Entifaadha showed his merit. In Dubai, he got the better of Entifaadha in the Listed Dubai Classic on the turf and while only eighth in the UAE Derby on World Cup night, he again had that William Haggas colt and also Kinglet behind in a hot event won by Daddy Long Legs. He had a busy spell with four runs in Dubai, so expect a more leisurely period before he returns to action on his preferred grass surface. He is smart sort who should continue to progress.
