Bang there in her last three runs and the race didn't really go her way when unpenalised at Wolverhampton (7f), where she challenged wide; only 2lb higher with Oisin Murphy replacing a 5lb claimer.

All three wins at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta), though he has been placed three times from eight starts over this C&D; a losing run of 38 isn't ideal, though; blinkers return.

Three-time C&D winner, ridden prominently for those successes, and now 8lb lower than for the latest of them; not hit top gear in three runs for this yard and he'll be 3lb lower from the weekend; still needs a market check with blinkers tried for the first time.

All three wins over C&D in 2022; promising start for new yard after Christmas but he ran no race at Southwell (mixed record there but does handle the surface) ten days ago and now has the hood discarded; on a good mark at present and may well return to form back here.
