Behind on his only run here (2023); Doncaster last June saw his only turf win since 2021, amidst plenty of AW success admittedly but he was out of form in February when last seen; has a competitive mark but other cases look a bit more solid, particularly as he's drawn wide.

Last nine starts on AW; ended a losing run when scoring at Lingfield (1m) in December but that set up for his closing style and he's not really threatened in four runs since, latterly at Kempton (7f) 113 days ago; can race off his lower turf mark today but others are more persuasive.

Form & Verdict
Had been tricky to win with in his first few seasons of racing but he's turned that around in 2024, winning three of his six starts (all 6f on good to firm); didn't shine at Salisbury last time but the slow ground probably held him back and he still looks feasibly treated; has possibilities back on Polytrack and has gone close over C&D in the past.
