Triple 7f winner at this track but he stays 1m and is versatile ground-wise; now only 1lb higher than for his last success in October and he caught the eye with his late headway over C&D 11 days ago; that was in a Class 5 and he's in the mix on this drop back in grade.

Ended last season with a brave win over C&D and he didn't get the best of runs on AW at Kempton (sixth of 13) on his return last month; on lower mark back in this sphere but his best turf form has been on good/good to firm and it would be a worry if the ground is on the slow side.

Three wins last season, with the first on Polytrack (1m) and last two over 6f on turf (good to firm/good to soft); hasn't made a big impact in three runs this spring but he's now 3lb lower than for last win and is not ruled out back up in trip; cheekpieces worn last time are removed.

Four wins last summer, latterly off a 7lb higher mark, and has come back to form round here lately; often blows the start and can pull hard, while it's late in the day to be trying headgear for the first time, but he remains quite capable if things fall right.
