Began 2023 with two AW wins; fair Listed fifth last May and was beaten just 2l into fifth in a red-hot race here on handicap debut last June; raced too freely back from 322 days off at Newmarket three weeks ago (6f, good) but that might have got the freshness out of him and he did move well for a long way; the drop to 5f is an interesting move and he appeals as being ahead of this mark; his only run on slower than good was on debut.

Began 2023 with two AW wins; fair Listed fifth last May and he was beaten just 2l into fifth in a red-hot race at York on his handicap debut last June; the first three home in that race are now BHA-rated 17lb, 23lb and 13lb higher respectively so it's unlikely this mark is beyond him; absence to contend with (has been gelded) but he's a fascinating runner.

Not disgraced in C&D handicap 11 days ago, following wind surgery, but the form is nothing special and his record is now 0-21; far more exposed than these rivals and looks an unlikely winner back at novice level.
