Good efforts on AW in the last three of his four handicaps, most recently when fifth of 14 at Chelmsford (1m; 7-2 favourite) on his return in March; should benefit from that run but he's now 1-7 and still has something to prove on turf; mixed messages.

Clicked since gelded and fitted with cheekpieces over C&D, losing out on the nod to Okami (went on to pip Saturnalia next time) before off the mark in good style last time; a 7lb rise will make life tougher into better company but he's lightly raced.
