Form & Verdict
Good to soft and slower going looked to suit particularly well last summer when he won twice, and was an unlucky fourth at Royal Ascot, but he's fully effective on faster ground too, recording a personal-best RPR at Pontefract last month (6f); not in the same form 25 days ago but he has run very well on both previous visits here (C&D winner) and isn't handicapped out of things; shortlisted.
