T: David Simcock

Gained his fifth AW success when winning at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December; mixed results in four subsequent runs but he rallied for fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) in March; now returns to turf but he has placed form in this sphere and is not ruled out back up in trip.

Back to winning ways in a low-grade handicap over C&D last month; creditable efforts the last twice, albeit he was turned over at short odds 12 days ago; should be involved at this level.
