Five wins last year (various ground), two of them over C&D, and campaign concluded with good third at Redcar in November; respectable reappearance run at Doncaster recently and could show the benefit of that outing today.

Stepped up on previous efforts on his nursery debut when runner-up at Hamilton (6f) 26 days ago; he should prove at least as effective over this longer trip and is much respected off an unchanged mark.
