Form & Verdict
Similar form in his first three runs before a lesser effort at Brighton four weeks ago; not obviously thrown in for his handicap debut but it wouldn't be a huge surprise were he to show considerably more over this new trip.

Stepped up on previous efforts when making a successful handicap debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) in June, but having been raised 5lb he was a disappointing favourite over the same C&D (good) last month; not quite sure what to expect after that.

J: Pat Cosgrave

His much-improved effort when winning a C&D handicap 17 days ago (good to soft) came as no surprise judged on his SP of 11-8 favourite and he was well in command at the finish (hung left when hitting the front); 5lb higher mark likely still in range.

No improvement for the switch to handicaps this season (both 1m on soft); only 9-2 at Ripon last month so presumably felt capable of better; encouragement for the new, longer trip on pedigree.
