Five wins (5.3f/6f) on turf but he's 0-11 on AW and was down the field here (6f) two weeks ago; has uninspiring form figures beyond sprint trips and is best watched on this step back up to 1m.

Five of his last seven wins have come at Brighton, including when he took six-runner handicap (5.5f, good to firm) in August; comparable form back at that track on his last two outings, but they suggest he needs a bit extra from this mark.

Notched a third win over C&D earlier in the month; that race rather fell into his lap, though, with the leaders going off too hard, and he'll find today's company tougher off a 6lb higher mark; not disgraced, having made late headway, here (6f) on Sunday.
