Five-time winner (four on AW) who ran well when fourth of 16 last May on his only outing here; chased home a handicap blot on his return to turf in April and he was back in that form when second at Windsor (again 6f, good to firm; Bolo Neighs behind) 11 days ago; in the mix once more.

Five 6f wins in 2025, on AW and turf (good); now 14lb higher than his final run on grass last year and, although he faced difficult tasks in two Newmarket starts this spring, he might have run better in the second of them; needs to raise his turf game.

Upped his game following a gelding operation last summer, winning over C&D in September before making giant strides on AW; returned from a break to do best of the rest behind runaway winner Double Rush over C&D 17 days ago; could have a nice prize in him this year but the 5lb turnaround with Double Rush may be insufficient.

Looked good when winning at Southwell on his handicap debut in February (6f); form then levelled off until he ran out the easy winner of a 6f handicap at Kempton in June (well backed); stiff task at Newmarket six weeks ago and the return to AW is in his favour.
