J: Harry Davies

T: Michael Appleby

Won on AW in December (6f) and March (5f) but ran poorly at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; 0-13 on turf and others have more compelling profiles.

Made it 2-2 over C&D when scraping home last month; up 2lb, but that latest run came after 79 days off so he could be a bit sharper for it; high on list.

C&D winner last February; back to winning ways with a front-running 6f win at Lingfield in December; not quite so good twice since and he needs the 11-week break to have freshened him up.

Three good AW runs in February, winning 5f handicaps at Lingfield and Wolverhampton before coming up just shy in his hat-trick bid at Southwell; form dipped on turf last month and he'll need better back up to 6f.

9/1
