Clearcut win in first-time blinkers on turf here (7f, soft) last June; several creditable efforts since but he was disappointing at Bath in his final run last autumn; has bit to prove with headgear missing after five months and this is competitive for the grade.

Form & Verdict
Sole success came back in 2019 but he's dropped in the weights since joining this yard and went with more promise when fourth over C&D in a first-time headgear combination (retained) three weeks ago; Blue Collar Lad was 1l ahead in third on that occasion but there wouldn't have been much in it had Dean Ivory's charge not suffered interference in the closing stages and he's 2lb better off with his old rival this time; player.

C&D win last December; off the mark for the year when winning a Yarmouth handicap (11.5f, soft) in good style in October; ran well over 1m2f here four weeks ago, carried right by the errant winner, and he's capable of another prominent showing.
