Has three wins and three seconds to his name from nine runs over C&D but has been banging his head against the wall off this sort of mark for a good while now; was below market expectations here last time and this is stronger.

J: Dougie Costello

His four wins have all come on Polytrack, never off a mark this high, and he is still to finish placed after ten runs on turf; has done most racing over 7f and doesn't arrive in any form, so has a good bit to overcome.

Form & Verdict
Three of his four wins for Andrew Balding came over C&D; two solid runs for his new yard this winter, latterly going down by a head at Chelmsford (1m) last week; good amateur booked and he looks to have plenty in his favour.

Last run at Kempton saw him finish a close second off a 15lb higher mark and that was as recent as March; likely to exploit his drop in the weights at some point but perhaps in a less competitive race than this.

Has looked on the downgrade in recent times, coming 16lb down the weights this year; hasn't looked to see out 1m2f the past twice, though, and a better showing wouldn't surprise back in the usual cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
Won twice on AW for this yard last year, including a 1m win at this track in June; a 2lb rise for his latest win at Newcastle (Class 3) doesn't look excessive and he's a key player with an experienced amateur on board.
