Prevailed by half a length in similarly big field at York (5.4f, good to soft; Class 4) two weekends ago, taking record to 9-39; yard has landed this race for the last two years; respected back down in grade, even with 5lb penalty.

Most wins on the AW but able on turf and stayed on well for second here 20 days ago (good; might not prefer it softer); this is a better race but he'll appreciate chasing a strong pace if ground conditions are suitable; 2lb out of the weights.

Won six times, three over C&D, in the first half of 2025 and he is well treated on even this year's best; wind surgery in April hasn't sparked a revival this summer but he drops in class this time and he has too much ability to rule out.

Beaten on his last 12 starts and only sixth at Wolverhampton last month, but he was returning from a break and was slowly away; could be sharper for that latest outing and he ran well in third over C&D in April; this three-time C&D winner is capable of having a big say.

Bids for his third straight win in this race, 2lb higher than for his 2024 win and 1lb higher than 12 months ago; slow starts have been an issue in recent outings but he retains ability and it will be no surprise to see him go well with cheekpieces now given a go.

Often leads; seven wins in 2026, mostly in sprints but also over C&D; much higher in the weights than his latest 7f win in July but he won with authority on Southwell AW last month and perhaps a further 7lb rise won't be beyond him.
