Posted career-best performance when winning on Poytrack at Lingfield (1m2f) in April, after a break, but subsequent turf form has been underwhelming and he's still on a fairly tough mark; cheekpieces refitted in bid to perk him up.

Attractively weighted, even on best turf form; however, he's 0-17 in this sphere and hasn't won on AW since 2022; no certainty to take advantage of a reduced mark.

Can miss the break and has a patchy profile; bounced back with a close second over C&D (good to firm) last month but she hung left when fourth of six here (7f, good to firm) last time; hood is now added on this step back up in trip but she comes with risks attached.

Mixed form since returning from long absence March but he got back in the groove when scoring over C&D (hood reapplied) two weeks ago; 3lb higher from wide draw this time but he remains well treated on old form and has claims if he can back up that last run.

Made it 0-13 when only sixth over C&D 11 days ago on his second start of the season, but it's possible he's working his way back to form and he's well handicapped on last season's best efforts; not written off.
