Enjoyed his finest hour when rattling home to win a 5.4f handicap at York's Ebor meeting last month; more prominently ridden over 6f three days later and didn't quite see it out on good to soft ground; still has time to do better but this mark does demand it.

In good form this year and he took it to a new level when powering home to win the 5.4f handicap here on Wednesday; has had few chances at 6f (third to Stratusnine over C&D last month) and will be fine on good to soft (more to prove should it get slower); respected under a 5lb penalty.

Only seventh in this race 12 months ago when 10lb lower; his improved form this spring has warranted this lofty mark and he ran well in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last month (off 1lb higher), doing best of the far-side group; still looks up against it here.

All runs at 6f on good or faster ground; unbeaten as a 2yo, winning a weak Gimcrack here 12 months ago on his second start (good to firm); lots to like about his comeback run at Chester, as he did a lot of early running from a bad draw and was picked off only late on; however, that was a Listed race and this is a new trip, so it looks a big ask.

Began 3yo campaign with a BHA mark of just 61 and went on to win five times (6f-8.6f); returned to action with a huge performance at Kempton (6f, AW) in March, slicing through the field from 2f out, and that positive impression has been confirmed with further wins at Newcastle (6f, AW) and Ascot (5f, good to firm); looked a natural at 5f when winning at the Shergar Cup meeting and the demands of this race will ask different questions; whatever the outcome today he remains a sprinter to keep on the right side.
