+ Has proven his ability against the best 3yos
+ Last start 7th was better than it sounds
+ Likely to be ridden by Vinnie Colgan, who has won the Derby 4 times.
- Inconsistent
- Some doubt about the distance
Verdict: I think this is one of the better longshots in the race. He was one of the favourites when the first Derby odds came out after some impressive wins against low class opposition. He's failed to live up to that promise, but his Karaka Mile run was amazing and he was half a length behind Zarzuela in the Guineas Prelude. I think people have forgotten him too quickly.
