Only defeat in his last four races came in a good-quality 3m4f handicap at Windsor; jumped well and stayed on best at Chepstow last time (2m7f, soft) where the front two pulled well clear; raised 7lb but Ned Fox takes away 3lb out of that; respected.

Back-to-back wins at Wetherby (3m, soft) and Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) before finding a Class 3 beyond him at Windsor (3m4f), though didn't run at all badly; considered back at this level.

In good form this season, winning over 3m at Wetherby and Uttoxeter in December (soft/good to soft) before fourth in stronger company at Windsor last time (3m4f, soft); chance.

Second-season chaser whose December double was initiated by a C&D win (soft); made the frame in marathon event at Windsor when bidding for hat-trick; remains in form and there's still the possibility of further improvement; not ruled out.
