Three turf wins at about 1m, coming home strongly to see off Cristo at Salisbury in May; acted on this surface in sole course start when involved in a tight finish over an inadequate 7f in 2025 and he looked to be running into form at Leicester recently; interesting.

Form & Verdict
Both wins have been at Chelmsford AW (1m2f) last spring; progression has stalled this year but handicap mark has reflected that and he finished third of eight at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) two weeks ago; his turn is near but not sure drop back to 1m will be in his favour.
