Form & Verdict
Runner-up twice in a row on AW in the winter before two heavy defeats; didn't run badly back on turf at Haydock (1m, good) last month after a break but the AW seems to be his preferred sphere (just 1-15 on grass).

Just two wins from his 30 starts and on a lengthy losing run, but he was an eyecatching fifth on last month's stable debut at Doncaster (1m, good) last month and posted a creditable third at Newcastle (1m, AW) last time, having had an excuse at Wetherby in between; could be in the shake-up.

Losing run goes back to C&D win in March 2024 but in good form on this track for his last yard, albeit he didn't help his mark by running well from out of the weights in July and he's now 4lb higher than for a defeat here the time before; likely to go well for new stable, even so.
