T: Phil McEntee

All wins at 6f up to two years ago but last five successes at 5f, most recently off much the same mark at Wolverhampton before Christmas; has beaten a total of two rivals in his last three starts, however, so more needs to be done back at 6f; cheekpieces refitted in place of a visor.

Form & Verdict
Sole win (17 starts) was August 2020 and there's been no serious suggestion of another since last summer, admittedly with 211 days off before his run four weeks ago; sold out of Lucinda Russell's for 1,200gns ten days ago.

Opened AW account at 17th attempt, with dominant success from the front in C&D classified last week; recorded a pretty good Topspeed figure for the grade that day and will take some catching under his 5lb penalty if in similar form again.

These conditions probably bring out the best in him and he was a cosy winner of a classified event here in January; has a five-month absence to overcome and suspicion there will be other days; one of three runners for the stable.
