Can lead; has been racing at about 7f for well over a year and he's run well in both attempts at that trip here, most recently when sticking his neck out for the win (good) last month; back up 3lb but on a fair mark still and used to have the speed for 6f; of interest.

Acts on good to firm and soft ground; overall record of 3-38 but his last two wins have come over C&D and he returned to form with a front-running third here 11 days ago; remains well handicapped off 2lb lower than for his last success and he could make another bold bid.

Has had some mixed results in 2026 but he had his path blocked when only just failing against Hale End at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) in April; travelled within himself but took an age to pick up when a never-nearer fourth at Ayr since and now has a tongue-tie added; capable of going well.
