Form & Verdict

Reappeared from near two-year absence to win a Navan maiden (6f, good to firm) and Naas handicap (6f, good) last summer; looks well handicapped on that last success but he ended last season with two disappointing runs; changed hands for 16,000gns since; still has low mileage but he's not been easy to predict and comes with risks attached on return; headgear removed.

Form & Verdict

Effective on fast and slow ground and he's won five times, with two on turf and three on AW; well handicapped on his two wins last spring and he returned to form with a close second at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last month; has claims if he can back that up and yard is in decent form.

Form & Verdict

Record of 5-12 in handicaps and he went close off this mark at Newbury (6f, good) on his penultimate run; didn't quite hit the same level at York last time but that was still a solid effort in a Class 2 and he's respected on this drop back in grade.
