Won three handicaps on the AW in January 2025 (1m-1m2f) and showed that he's still on a fair mark with a second at Kempton on final run this January; however, this is tougher than he's accustomed to and has to prove himself on turf.

In the hands of John Butler when sporting first-time blinkers to score at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February; that's her only success but a keeping-on third here (1m4f, good) was a respectable effort a fortnight ago and this new trip is probably worth a go.

Ten career wins include four here and he might have made that five but for a troubled run when second a month ago; that was over 1m but he's just as good over this far; strong contender.
