Consistent; successful at Ffos Las (1m4f Class 6, good) in June, and has since acquitted himself well around the southern turf circuit (1m4f-1m6f); competes from a joint career-high on just his second attempt on the AW, so it is possible that he'll find a few stronger; first-time cheekpeices.

Multiple turf winner at up to 11.5f; less effective on AW surfaces but her best such effort was when last tried at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in May; if able to repeat that form she would have claims from this 5lb lower mark but she's not easy to predict.
