Sole success came on final start for Ivan Furtado in a Ffos Las nursery (1m, good to soft) just over a year ago; 0-7 for Alice Haynes and makes his debut for another new stable (same owners) having undergone wind surgery since last seen; may be best watched unless market suggests otherwise.

Often leads, as when a wide-margin AW winner on yard debut last September; has run many good races in defeat since, including when losing out late on to a stablemate over C&D (good to soft; pair clear) last week; due to go back up 2lb; drying ground no help but form claims otherwise.
