Form & Verdict
Only 2-32 but competitive in all but one of his five starts in 2022 and his Wolverhampton win in January (8.6f) came after a similar absence; slight concern is that he's yet to fire here, albeit in just two visits on AW.

4lb higher than his latest win at Lingfield in December (7f, Polytrack) and ran well when 1lb higher than this next time; form has been tailing off since then and he has a bit to prove dropping back to this trip.

Last two wins came off breaks of 142 and 131 days but is fine with a quick turnaround; course runs this year suggest he may find a few better handicapped, though; cheekpieces discarded.

Hold-up performer who won four times last year including off 4lb higher at Brighton (7f, good to firm); two solid efforts on AW since rejoining Tony Carroll last month and he could be a big factor if he gets the breaks back on turf; tongue-tie and blinkers are removed but he has won without headgear.
