Form & Verdict
Won in first-time blinkers at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) in June and runner-up the next twice; not quite at best at Redcar last time but he raced alone in the centre until after halfway, which may not have helped; a first-time visor replaces the blinkers and he could play a leading role.
