NAJIDI STORM (2) opened his account two starts ago. Did well when second over 2000m at Goodwood last time beaten 1.5L. This looks less demanding and should get involved again. WOOTZ (3) followed a winning debut at Ffos Las with a solid second trying 1600m at Windsor. More to offer among similar looking company. AL JOLSON (1) got off the mark tackling 1600m at Redcar last time scoring comfortably. Lightly raced and open to further improvement. SHADOW BOXER (10) has not been seen since finishing third debuting in a 1600m contest at Southwell on the all-weather during April. Another step forward cannot be ruled out. Place claims.

Third race start today. At debut, favourite; won by 0.5 len at Kempton Park All Weather on August 5 over 1600m defeating Gavriel carrying 59kg at $9.50. Second-up ran second last in a small field at Goodwood on September 8 over 2000m, slow going 1.5 len behind Wreck It Ronnie carrying 62kg. Rates highly and should run well.

Second run back. First-up after six months ran second last in a small field at Ffos Las on September 21 over 1500m, slow going 9 len behind Lucky Radar carrying 59kg at $29. Previously second-up 4th of 15 at Leopardstown on December 29 over 3621m, 6 len behind Lynches Knock with 70kg at $15. Fair effort on that occasion but this looks beyond his reach.

Had two starts to date. At very long odds at debut, 5th of 8 at Ffos Las on August 4 over 1600m, 22 len behind Wootz carrying 60.5kg at $126. Last start 3rd in a small field at Salisbury on August 21 over 2000m, 21 len behind Bintward carrying 59.5kg at $41. Doesn't look one of the major players.
