Sightly disappointing after sluggish start at Newmarket this month but returned to turf with three good runs this spring, the most notable a win at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on second occasion; features prominently in calculations.

Came from the rear to score at Newbury last month and was placed off today's mark at Epsom (also 6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; can probably cope with this drop back to a stiff 5f but he'll need some luck from stall 1 and his tendency to start slowly is also a worry.
