Slow starts have become an unwelcome habit but he caught the eye keeping on for fifth of 13 behind King's Code over C&D in January, when denied a clear run; last of three at Lingfield since in a race that wasn't run to suit; each-way claims if getting the breaks.

Does well on the AW and was never ideally positioned in a steadily run race over C&D two months ago; slow breaks have become an unwelcome habit but capable of being in the shake-up granted a solid pace to chase; Alfie Redman takes off a useful 7lb.

Improver since upped to 1m4f this winter, winning three times (including two over C&D) and going 20lb up the weights; was again free enough back under Billy Loughnane last time and this mark should be within range if he settles after a short break.

Not much room for manoeuvre off this mark (6lb higher than when last winning) and, while he's effective over this trip, he stays further; needs to improve on his January comeback effort back from two months off.

On a long losing sequence but he was pretty smart on turf/AW at his best for the Johnston stable and showed enough to think he retains a good chunk of his ability when returning from a year off to finish fifth of 11 in 1m3f Windsor handicap in October; has joined a stable which excels with new recruits.

Better on the AW (6-14) than turf and boasts a solid record round here; there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh, though, and he resumes on a career-high mark, having been nudged up another 1lb for last October's C&D third.
