Won twice during a light 3yo campaign, after which he was gelded; looked set for big things when bolting up at Southwell last January (5f; hooded first time) but he was off for seven months prior to finishing third over C&D last August (still ran well and not seen to maximum effect); another 251-day absence to contend with this time but the best may still be to come.

0-7 on AW but yet to run a poor race at this track; looked destined for big things as a sprinter when the impressive winner of a 6f handicap at Haydock last May but didn't quite make the progress that looked likely; still ended the year with some good efforts though and he has run well fresh in the past; career-high mark to defy so will need to be cherry ripe today.

Inconsistent 6yo but he has plenty of talent, as witnessed at Yarmouth last summer when he powered home to win a Racing League handicap (6f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark; out of sorts in Bahrain over the winter; can win a nice prize this year but not sure this race will set up ideally for his hold-up style.

He hasn't been with this yard long and created a good impression when sweeping through to land a competitive 6f handicap at Wolverhampton last month; still looks well treated and latest 7f run here, when never threatening, isn't the run to judge him on; big player if they go fast enough early.
