Form & Verdict
Couldn't sustain his effort late on at Newmarket in October (7f, good to soft), but he travelled strongly through the race and is the type to do much better this season (gelded over the winter); one to consider, especially if strong in the betting.

Not the force of old but gained his fifth success, at Kempton (1m, AW) in May; beaten 4l at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last month in an 18-runner contest but this smaller field should play to his strengths (all five wins have been in races with less than ten runners).
