Seven Newcastle wins last year, latterly off 8lb higher; didn't shape with obvious promise when sixth back on AW at Southwell latest but the second/third from that race have won since and he could revive back here.

Soft ground was probably against him on latest outing; won six times on AW last year and, although he's taken minor honours on all three starts at this track, including two this summer, he does not look the percentage call with his 1-27 strike-rate on turf.

Form & Verdict
Multiple turf winner who ran well over C&D in a race that worked out well in October; not seen since but, although he's gone well fresh and he gets the services of a capable 5lb apprentice, he'll likely have to step up to win this.

Winless on turf since 2021 but showed more on his second run back from a break last time, is now 2lb lower and this is easier than the handicaps he's used to contesting; tends to be held up and a speed-favouring 5f in a small field may not be optimal but he's capable.
