Form & Verdict
Two wins to date, including over C&D, came in May second time out, so clearly comes to hand early; resumes on a handy mark (2lb lower than when going in at York last spring) but he may just need this after six months off.

Won on reappearance at Yarmouth in April and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and he needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces.

All wins at 5f, one of them here at last year's Dante meeting, and he's on the same mark as when making a successful return at Yarmouth in April (5f, good to firm); best produced late off a strong pace at 5f though and his 6f form is unconvincing.

Form & Verdict
Being back with one of his former yards might help mentally but he's been on the downgrade in recent times and his last two wins (both in the spring) came over 6f on the AW; interesting to see how he goes in the market for yard that also runs Angle Land.

Won first time out in 2022 and ran well on last season's comeback off a much higher mark, which bodes well; he's happiest on easy courses too, so there are positives under experienced 5lb claimer Kaiya Fraser.

Undergone wind surgery since four AW runs (6f-7f) over the winter; the handicapper is only slowly relenting and whether he'll have the speed for this (French turf runs all came on good to soft and slower over further) is the question.

Good efforts on his last three 5f runs but in between there have been two lesser efforts over 6f; did win over C&D off 1lb higher last November though and he can't be left out of calculations.

Returns to turf 9lb higher than when last running on grass but his AW rating has gone up 19lb during that time and he's clearly found a burst of improvement, despite having had plenty of racing; ideally suited by an easy 5f and has won over C&D; fair chance of the hat-trick.
