Added C&D success last time (good) to an earlier win at Beverley in July (5f, good to firm); bigger field and more pace rivals await on this occasion, but doesn't look weighted out of things despite penalty.

Fared least well of the four rivals reopposing from a Redcar classified this month, extending his losing run to 30; in the frame on five of eight previous C&D visits, however, so minor place claims again.

Six-time AW winner but not since March 2024, and his turf strike-rate is 0-28; probably worth another crack at 7f but has been out of form over sprint trips for a good while now; considered only if lively in betting.

Won six times on AW in the first part of 2024 but there hasn't been much to cheer about since; 0-27 on turf but has run well over C&D and the forecast rain won't bother him; still too much to prove for comfort.
