Placed twice over 1m since joining Gemma Tutty in the spring and probably wasn't suited by the drop to 7f when sixth in Class 4 handicap on latest outing; eased significantly in grade for this first venture beyond 1m and ought to pose a significant threat.

Seven-time AW winner but he's finished a well-held seventh at Kempton in last two starts; on much lower mark back on turf and he's just 1-11 in this sphere; that win was a narrow success off 4lb lower; others preferred.

Beverley win last summer (8.5f, soft) came off 2lb higher; slowly away both runs this winter but he's done enough to think he retains all his ability; interesting to see if he's stronger in the market today.
