Appreciated the drop in class when winning a 0-50 classified event at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in January, but form has regressed since; plenty to prove back on turf (beaten a long way in both starts on grass as a 3yo).

Form & Verdict
Finished placed in six of his last seven runs last year but his good run of form came to a halt here last month and he was down the field again at Southwell last time; this step back up in trip is no problem but he's now 0-20 and others are more convincing.
