Form & Verdict
Step up to 1m6f at Southwell 26 days ago saw him do better than of late, finishing second to last-time-out winner; will need to settle upped again in trip, and could have done without 2lb rise, but is respected; headgear retained.

Form & Verdict
2m on Polytrack ideal and was backed to add to her tally over C&D 19 days ago; they didn't go hard enough there (finished third of five) but Bascinet and Cheng Gong could ensure this sets up better.

J: Mia Nicholls

T: Eve Johnson Houghton

Tends to ruin his chances by pulling too hard, as was the case when third at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last time but that was a fair effort all things considered in the first-time visor (retained); needs to settle but won off 11lb higher in March 2023 (AW, 1m6f) and has a big run in him; considered.

Sole win from 25 starts came when beating three rivals at Yarmouth last May; sixth to Global Wonder at Chelmsford then finished in front of that rival over C&D last week; can probably take on.

Well handicapped on his best form and he returned from a lengthy absence with a fair fourth of 11 at Southwell (1m6f) last month; could be dangerous if he can build on that but a strike-rate of 1-29 is off-putting.
