Form & Verdict
Three wins this year and went close behind Global Effort at Wolverhampton last month; 5l behind Poetic Jack over C&D last time but that doesn't tell the whole story as he was poorly positioned turning for home and only the runner-up covered the final 2f faster; needs a strong pace but that could be on the cards and he's handicapped to win.
