Goes well in a big field over a straight 1m; beaten a neck in this race last year (good ground) and made a winning return in the Lincoln at Doncaster (good to soft; beat Rogue Diplomat a nose) three weeks ago; should be in the thick of things again off a 4lb higher mark.

Close fifth in the Royal Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) last June and close third next time, again at Ascot (1m, good to firm); has shown promise on soft ground; not at the top of his game on his final two outings last term but has an each-way shout if back to his best on this reappearance.

Below par at York latest but a wide draw made things tough for this prominent-racer; progressive otherwise, rallying when close fifth of 30 in the Royal Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) and when close third to Ebt's Guard at Ascot (1m, good to firm) two starts ago; of interest over today's extra 1f.

Best efforts last three starts with a win at Sandown, fifth of 30 in the Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot and a close, front-running third off today's mark in Shergar Cup race at Ascot; all those were 1m on good to firm; respected.

Has come into his own since handicapping on good and quicker ground, finding plenty to win at Sandown and doing well to be fifth of 30 in the Hunt Cup here (also 1m, good to firm; checked over 1f out) only four days later; 1lb higher today but he still has scope for improvement.
