Winning for the third time at Wolverhampton, and his first over further than 7f, when landing a C&D handicap in March; his stamina looked stretched by 9.4f when fourth 18 days ago; not ruled out back down in distance.

Unraced here since 2022 and nearly all his AW runs at Newcastle; richly deserves a change of luck following close calls there (1m2f and 1m) on last two starts, slightly unfortunate on Friday; bold show likely.

Won at Hamilton (1m3f, good) on May 3 and again had plenty in hand when following up at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) last week, when switched to front-running tactics; this thriving 8yo has strong claims under 4lb penalty.
