Rarely seen on turf these days even though he has won on it; only one piece of recent worthwhile form and jockey (who also owns him) is having her first ride in public; has dropped 8lb below his last winning mark, though, so could play a part if producing his best.

Back to form when a close third of ten at Wolverhampton 19 days ago (6f; visored); still has plenty of handicapping scope and the booking of Tom Marquand is a positive; back up in trip with cheekpieces returning; contender.
