Easily his best form this year is the defeat of 17 rivals over this far at Newbury (good to soft), since when he's been beaten a long way at York; becoming a hard horse to predict.

Both wins have been on slow ground and had those conditions when second on his reappearance at Doncaster (1m2f); beaten double-digit lengths in all his runs since (the last twice in cheekpieces then a visor) and others are safer here.

Not a prolific winner, with his waiting tactics, and never involved when 7-1 for last year's 1m4f Duke of Edinburgh at this meeting; however, it would be unwise not to recall his fourth in the Ebor at York last August (1m6f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark and he was unsuited by the steady pace at York last time out (1m4f); could get competitive should this pan out favourably; stable won this in 2022.

Formerly smart on the Flat (fourth in 2022 Derby) but was knocking about in low-grade handicaps last year; well beaten on stable/hurdle debut in May but shaped with much more promise when third over C&D (albeit well held in the end) later that month, and might collect another minor prize today.

Useful 2yo and better than ever the last twice, winning narrowly at Newcastle (1m2f AW) before going down by only a neck to a progressive Haggas horse at Newmarket two weeks ago (1m2f, good); perhaps a shade flattered latterly having dominated up front but clearly an appealing option off just 1lb higher.

Strike-rate of 4-12; wasn't helping his jockey when a close third behind an improver at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) and blinkers could be a significant addition, replacing regular cheekpieces; there's nothing wrong with his mark.

Form & Verdict
Hit with a 9lb rise for his clearcut Haydock win (1m2f, good to firm) and that looked a factor when no match for a progressive winner at Lingfield; now has to prove himself worthy of such a mark but it's still relatively early days and he's in better form than most of these.

Won at Haydock (1m2f) in May and from Dreams Adozen at Chester (upped to 1m4f, good to soft) in August; needs to bounce back from a poor show last time (first run on AW since his pre-handicap days) and has not raced on soft ground since debut; bit to prove on those counts but that Chester win was a comfortable one.

Drew clear to win by nearly 5l at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) in May, his second handicap, but found one too good when odds-on to follow up later that month and again let favourite backers down when only sixth of nine at Doncaster (1m2f, good) in July; moves up in trip here and may still have potential but has a point to prove.

Low-mileage 4yo; just edged out by Plage De Havre on his C&D reappearance but promoted to first after suffering interference; that rival bolted up at Newcastle next time so a short-priced defeat for this one at Wolverhampton (1m6f) 11 days ago probably shouldn't be taken to suggest that the handicapper has got him.
