Third foal; closely related to 1m2f/11.4f winner Spinning Wheel (RPR 94); dam placed 9.4f-12.4f AW (74), closely related to useful 7f-10.4f winner Memory Cloth, half-sister to 1m 2yo Group 1 winner Ibn Khaldun, out of Irish 1,000 Guineas winner. Justified odds-on favouritism on his debut over 7f at Sandown in June 2025 and then won the Group 2 Superlative Stakes over 7f at Newmarket. Then lost his unbeaten record when finishing sixth in the Group 1 Vincent O'Brien National Stakes in September at the Curragh, followed by a ninth in the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes.
