Won 6f novice at Goodwood last May in good style; 11 months off before hard-fought win at Wolverhampton in April; only seventh on his handicap debut at York Dante meeting (7f, good to firm) but he travelled well before meeting trouble at a crucial stage; returning to 6f could spark further progress.

Truncated 2yo campaign featured a Goodwood win (6f, good); narrowly defied a penalty in Wolverhampton novice event (7f, AW) on reappearance, taking form figures to 211; ties in with Jolly Roger on that running; still open to further progress and is one for the shortlist.

Perhaps in need of the run when eighth of 13 behind Hucklesbrook at Leicester on return in May and left that behind him when readily seeing off his 13 rivals at Windsor last month (6f, good to firm); that race has thrown up some winners and a 7lb rise looks justified but he is in much deeper this time.

For one who has been a model of consistency for much of his career it is slightly disconcerting that he has been well below form in three of his last four starts; the lesser runs have been in Class 5 events and his standout recent effort came when faced with Class 6 opposition, missing out by just a head at Lingfield in February (1m2f, AW); has run well over C&D in the past and a revival could be forthcoming back down in grade.
