Well into the veteran stage but he retains ability and wasn't beaten far in C&D handicaps twice in January; not at his best last time but no surprise to see him revive back at this track.

Multiple winner down the years and he retains some ability despite being well into the veteran stage; missed the break when well backed at Lingfield on penultimate start but had no excuses here last week; others stronger for win purposes.

Ran well for third in a 5f maiden at Kempton ten days ago, an effort backed up by the clock; still to win after 12 starts but returning to a low-grade handicap can help; handy draw and he has each-way claims.

Regularly placed but 0-29 and barely stays even the sharpest of 5f; not beaten far at Wolverhampton 19 days ago (just behind Toplight) and this is his first dip into 0-55 company; feather in Oisin Murphy's cap if he can coax him home.

Off the mark at the 41st attempt when landing a Bath maiden (5.7f) in August but he's been well held in five runs since including on Tapeta in last three starts; continues to drop back down the weights but he has questions to answer for new yard; blinkers removed.

Form & Verdict
He has tumbled down the weights and was the subject of good market support in a 7f handicap at Southwell last week, only to race freely and drop away quickly; another 5lb lower as a result and the returning tongue-tie could help; risky but not out of it.

Ready winner over 6f in January (Tapeta); not quite so good in three runs since and this drop back to 5f will ask a different question of him; quite a free-going sort so not impossible it will suit.
