19-race maiden; ran some good races in defeat for this yard last year, including when last seen in October (1m2f, good to soft); withdrawn at the start having got upset in the stalls ahead of this month's intended return (10-1 at the time of withdrawal); others preferred for win purposes.

Has yet to build on his promising debut third at Newmarket last summer, taking a good hold in first-time blinkers and weakening to finish a well-held fifth in 1m4f Catterick maiden on his reappearance 37 days ago; visor the headgear of choice this time; still fairly early days but he needs to get his career back on track now handicapping.

Regressed over hurdles last year but there was some encouragement with a hood deployed when fourth of seven at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) on his Flat return last month; blinkers (retained) were back on when a pace bias and wide draw did for him at Chester three weeks ago; not entirely ruled out.

Consistent; successful at Ffos Las (1m4f Class 6, good) in June, and has since acquitted himself well around the southern turf circuit (1m4f-1m6f); competes from a joint career-high on just his second attempt on the AW, so it is possible that he'll find a few stronger; first-time cheekpeices.
