Form & Verdict
Has finished closer with each run, going down by under 3l in a 6f novice here three weeks ago; probably quick enough to cope with 5f and he has fewer convictions than the rest.

Handicapper hit him hard after he made it 2-2 at Leicester off 7lb lower last month and he's struggled in two runs since; hit and miss now and, while it's possible he'll bounce back, others have more pressing claims.

6yo who hit a personal best with his emphatic win at Leicester (6f, good) last month but he flopped off this revised mark there 12 days later; has won at Ripon but he's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back again after that last run.

Three of his four wins have been at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) and latest was in January; finished down the field in last two starts but he had an excuse over 6f last time and he could rediscover his spark back up in trip; not ruled out off workable mark.
