He had been threatening a win prior to making it 16th time lucky at Chelmsford last month, justifying favouritism in good style in a 16-runner 1m handicap; 6lb rise shouldn't prevent another good run.

Form & Verdict
A wind operation in September and a switch to the AW has seen his fortunes take a big upturn, landing a gamble at Newcastle in fine style last month and adding a further two easy wins in November; very strong at the finish back over 7f last week and unlikely he has finished improving just yet; another 7lb higher today but still eligible for this 0-60 and his rider's claim again helps lessen his burden; not ideally drawn but he's much better than this grade.
