Unable to land a telling blow when favourite here (6f) this month but was close third off much-reduced mark here two starts ago and ought to be suited by today's return to 7f; tongue-tie removed after one use; it might pay to give him another chance.

Lost his way last year after a spring win for Eve Johnson Houghton off 13lb higher; well supported ahead of his C&D comeback in February, when faring much better off this mark, and is one to consider in a first-time tongue-tie for a yard going well of late.

All three wins have come under front-running tactics on AW including over C&D and at Lingfield (5f) this summer; only 2lb higher than for last success but his good run of form came to a halt at Newcastle two weeks ago and he needs to bounce back after that.

When fifth of 14 at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month he was trapped wide and failed to settle, so that run wasn't without promise, but he's since been well beaten at Newcastle (6f, AW) and is now 0-13; cheekpieces go on; plenty to prove.

6f winner who has failed to improve since upped to 7f/1m, latterly for new yard; combination of return to sprinting and first-time visor gives him possibilities off a reduced mark.
