He lacks a recent run and was below par more often than not last year; however, he reappears on a handy mark and, with his stable going well, it will be no surprise if this C&D winner is in the mix.

Form & Verdict
Displayed improved form when well backed and easily making all in first-time blinkers here (1m, good) 12 days ago, which was a first win at the 12th attempt; the strength of the form is questionable and she's up 10lb, but she's unexposed in the blinkers and could prove tough to catch once more.
