Only won one of his last 25 starts and regressed last year; now 11lb lower than when beaten a nose over C&D last spring but there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh; others have more pressing claims.

Struggled on his last four starts but he has dropped 9lb as a result; fully effective around here and he's likely to bounce back soon; 7f perhaps his optimum trip though.

Defied a higher mark at Glorious Goodwood last season and placed a few times on AW this year (up to April); not in top form since returning from a break and needs to stage a revival.

Form & Verdict
Won on debut at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) in May and, having also shown promise the next twice (including over 6f), he readily won a nursery on the same course (5f, good to soft) last Thursday; strong claims up 6lb.

Latest 6f run not the one to judge him on and his earlier 5f runs this year were both encouraging enough; on a dangerous mark if the new headgear has the desired effect.

Just one win since October 2023 and that came on AW; operating off a reduced mark now though and he has been keeping on late in 5f handicaps this spring; has his first 6f start in nearly two years but a tongue-tie is now added and he's not discounted.

Form & Verdict
Showed promise when third on first two starts (6f/6.5f, good to firm); a lesser performance followed at Chester (6f, good) but he's from a top northern stable and is not written off on nursery debut.

Built on his promising debut second at Goodwood (6f, good) when landing the odds at Lingfield (6f, AW) last month; struggled in the Coventry at Royal Ascot last time but he's back in much calmer waters here and could resume his progress at this new trip; respected with blinkers added on nursery debut.

One of three runners for Richard Hannon; favourite on debut and improved on that form when a workmanlike winner of an ordinary race at Lingfield (6f, AW) two weeks ago; may do better still but this is a much sterner task and Kevin Stott has chosen to ride Bucanero Fuerte instead.

Form & Verdict
Won Leicester seller (6f, good to firm) on third start and took another step forward with easy novice win at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) four days later; unproven on slow ground; knows how to get the job done and he's one to consider on his nursery debut.
