Form & Verdict
Clear second off 3lb lower at Lingfield (7f) on most recent AW start, showing improvement for gelding operation and/or switch to handicap company, but he dropped out over 7f at Leicester yesterday (first-time cheekpieces, retained); has something to prove if turned out quickly.

Prominent racer who won three 6f nurseries on fast ground last season; chance on this season's best too but he failed to fire on turf at Lingfield last time (blinkered for the first time and now tried in a visor); should have the pace to cope with this return to 5f.

Took well to first-time visor in similar event at Doncaster (6f, good) nine days ago, opening his account at the fifth attempt; up 5lb for that narrow win but may have more to offer in the retained headgear.
