Won at Ffos Las (1m2f, good to soft) and Sandown (1m2f, good) last summer, but he wasn't able to build on those victories in three subsequent starts; absent since October but has place claims on this reappearance.

Thoroughly exposed eight-time winner and a 9yo now; however, positives to take from three of his last four runs and no reason why he won't be involved.

Retains plenty of ability aged nine, having finished a close second in two of his three outings this term, latest at Sandown; was still capable of winning races last summer and can't be ruled out.

Eight wins divided between hurdling and the Flat; off the same mark as when narrowly beating Mrembo in this 12 months ago and returns off the same mark; penultimate run was on a par with that performance.

J: Pat Cosgrave

Returned to winning form in a slowly run apprentice handicap at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) last month and probably didn't stay 1m5f here five days later; new mark has now kicked in and she looks vulnerable to younger legs.

Form & Verdict
Held on to win at Kempton (2m, AW) in February and posted a solid effort when fourth at Southwell (2m, AW) 84 days ago; off since and this drop back in trip probably isn't ideal on his first outing on turf since September 2023.
