Form & Verdict
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims.

Won at Wolverhampton last month when upped to 9.4f on his only AW start; creditable fourth of 11 to Stormy Monday at Doncaster (good to soft) 12 days later when upped to 1m2f, but he raced freely at and near the front and others prove stronger late on; concern same will happen today.

Attracted plenty of support when winning a Haydock bumper (good) one year ago; subsequently changed hands for £100,000 but weakened on stable/hurdling debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in January; disappointing if he's not capable of better.
