No AW win since January 2023 (Newcastle, 12.5f); managed to score at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last July but fortunes dipped markedly towards the end of the turf season; more than enough to prove after layoff.

Prolific course winner who had been through a slightly frustrating spell but was ultimately quite impressive when winning going away at Southwell last month (1m4f); usually follows a win with a good run these days and is still on a fair mark despite going back up 5lb.
