Made it three wins from his last four starts when returning to winning ways at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last month; had just a nose to spare and is 6lb higher today, but all of his wins have been narrow ones and he keeps defying the handicapper; has run well on good to soft (unraced on softer).
