Five good runs over 7f on AW this year and all four wins have been on an artificial surface; modest form on turf, on last run, which was back in June 2022, finishing 9l seventh of eight at Chester (7f, good); best watched.

On a dangerous mark and although recent form figures are uninspiring he shouldn't be judged too harshly on his last two runs (drawn 13 when behind a few of these here 16 days ago); has landed stall 1 today; interesting.

Very well treated on his best form and there were clear signs at Wolverhampton in November that he was primed to strike; things haven't gone quite so smoothly in two runs since but dropping back into Class 6 company will help and positive tactics are often advantageous over this C&D; lower draw would have been optimal but he's still one to take very seriously.
