Form & Verdict
Back in good form on his last three starts (all 1m4f, Tapeta); has a 2lb pull with Master Grey after finishing 1l behind him at Southwell latest; while that looks attractive there is a bit for him to prove dropping back to this trip and on a different surface.

Tends to ruin his chances by pulling too hard, as was the case when third at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last time but that was a fair effort all things considered in the first-time visor (retained); needs to settle but won off 11lb higher in March 2023 (AW, 1m6f) and has a big run in him; considered.
