Inconsistent since going close at Lingfield in June; won off current mark in C&D event just over a year ago, the final leg of a hat-trick, and has a good chance provided he's back to that form.

Completed an AW hat-trick around this time last year (including a win over C&D) and only just beaten off this mark here in June; held in three starts since (behind Spirit Of Leros last time) and vulnerable to an improver, this being his 16th start

Just a respectable fourth of eight after making the running on last month's nursery debut at Musselburgh (1m, good; gelded soon afterwards) and needs to find something extra here.

Form & Verdict
Bettered inauspicious debut when respectable fifth in Haydock novice (7f, good to firm) in August and put in fairly good front-running shift (albeit well beaten in the end) in good maiden at Goodwood (1m, good) this month; could have a say on this nursery/AW debut.
