Drawn wide back up to 6f last time and that run is best overlooked; previously in good form over C&D, winning at a short price late last month in 0-55 company, but this race is stronger and he's 6lb higher.

Very well treated on his best form and there were clear signs at Wolverhampton in November that he was primed to strike; things haven't gone quite so smoothly in two runs since but dropping back into Class 6 company will help and positive tactics are often advantageous over this C&D; lower draw would have been optimal but he's still one to take very seriously.
