Faded into fourth over 7f at Lingfield 12 days ago; may prove suited by this return to 6f but he's comparatively exposed (now 0-9) and doesn't look straightforward; blinkers worn last time are removed.

Down the field in two AW runs back from a break, the latest at Chelmsford last week; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but he has a good record on soft ground and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue.

Successful in weak turf maiden on final start for previous stable; fairly consistent form, without progressing, in AW handicaps for new yard; has edged down the weights and may raise his game off this mark.
