2-26 with both wins coming over C&D, the latest in a 0-50 classified event in January; patchy form since, but the return to this trip should suit and he can't be left out of calculations.

Looked unlucky here in April, when getting well behind after a slow start over 1m, and his yard's in better form now than then; that's not the first time he's fluffed his lines at the stalls, though, and he can pull hard, so he comes with risks attached.
