2nd Apr 2024 Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Can race freely but has responded well to blinkers, winning two of his three starts in this headgear (all on AW); up 7lb for the latest but that was quite decisive from off the pace and this could also be run to suit; 1m with cut underfoot is fine. |

Tends to race too freely but seemed to respond well to first-time blinkers when winning off reduced mark at Southwell (7f) last month; ought to have been suited by the return to 1m when very disappointing joint-favourite here two weeks ago but no surprise if he bounces back quickly. |

Done the bulk of his winning over 6f, and hasn't tasted success since March 2021 (Chelmsford); gone off the boil since posting back-to-back third place finishes (over 7f) in mid-February; headgear is yet to deliver. |

All ten wins (including one here) have come over 5f-7f; losing run is up to 20 and his stamina for this far remains unproven; different headgear combination will need to make a big difference. |

Placed on consecutive 7f Tapeta starts last month and didn't run badly over 6f here a week ago but this move back up to 1m is not sure to suit and it's now over three years since his last win; swaps blinkers for first-time visor; tongue-tie also fitted for first time. |
