All eight wins have been on AW but he's lost his way with heavy defeats at Newcastle (12.4f, Tapeta) and Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in last two runs; still lightly raced on turf but he needs a major revival back in this sphere.

Reliable 6yo, who won three times (1m4f/1m5f) during a busy spell this winter and he ran another solid race when runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last Friday; should go well again on this drop back in trip and he's respected with Hollie Doyle booked.

Underwhelming fifth of six on last month's stable and seasonal debut at Southwell (1m3f, AW), but he was wide early and may have needed the run; progressive on turf last season for William Haggas and he could tap back into that promise and play a leading role today.

Opened his account at Lingfield (1m4f) in November and shaped as if still in good form after nearly two months off when a fading fourth in 1m6f Chelmsford handicap 26 days ago; not discounted now back in trip in a change of headgear.
