Resurgent 4yo who has form figures of 23221 since April and beat a clear second when scoring at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) last month on his second run for James Owen; a 4lb rise for that success looks fair and he's a big player back on AW.

In decent form for Jack Jones in the spring and, after a close second on his stable debut in June, he won at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) in July and Kempton (1m, AW) last time; drawn on the wing and he's up 3lb but the hat-trick must be a possibility.

Without a win since his debut in 2024 (posted an RPR of 89) but he was placed in each of his three starts for Jack Jones, and went close over C&D on his stable debut four weeks ago; he's on a handy mark and has to be respected.
