Largely consistent since beginning this year with two 1m Polytrack wins (one here) and lost out only narrowly after enduring a wide trip at Kempton three weeks ago; has to take a 3lb rise on the chin but probably won't be far away.

Returned to 1m he has exploited his reduced mark, winning at Newcastle ten days ago and following up over C&D on Wednesday (strong at the finish); effectively 5lb higher today but no doubting he's still feasibly treated on even last season's best.

Has hit form lately, going down by a neck here (1m, good) in May and going one better at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) last month; well held in one previous attempt over this far, but recent efforts suggest he is worth another go; respected from 4lb higher.

Came from off the pace to win decisively in a Wolverhampton handicap in September (extended 1m); similar form when third over C&D in November and he needs consideration back down into a Class 6.
