Form & Verdict

He has never been prolific but he has run several good races in defeat this winter and his latest close fourth at Wolverhampton was backed up by the Topspeed figure; unplaced in five course runs but two of them were fine efforts in much better races; one to consider.

His C&D record reads 332211 and he impressed with how he went through the race when readily seeing off Enraged (runs in the 6.30) here 13 days ago; this race is competitive for the grade but he still looks ahead of his mark.
