Had Laurentia and Hot Day behind when off the mark over C&D a fortnight ago; is low mileage compared to most of these and a 2lb rise seems fair, so he's shortlisted.

Winless since his 3yo days but has gone close a few times over C&D; patchy since returning from an absence, cracking late in first-time cheekpieces latest having made a lot of the running.
