10yo who may prefer slow ground but the going was good when he was fourth of 21 in this in 2024; often runs well here and he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March; each-way possible.

Not prolific for one of his ability but 6f on slow ground suits him well and he confirmed the promise of his fine run in the Ayr Bronze Cup when winning back at Ayr two weeks ago (6f, heavy); 3lb rise not excessive and he should make another bold bid.

1lb lower than for his Ayr win in October; ran well in two of his three AW starts this year but he did enjoy a perfect trip around Lingfield last time and had no excuses; others are more persuasive.

Getting on but retains a lot of his old ability, is still consistent enough and has won over C&D before; rare off-day at Thirsk a fortnight ago, having beating a subsequent winner in a small field off 1lb lower previously; quite capable of bouncing back.

Form & Verdict
His only win in 11 starts came in a three-runner novice at Catterick last summer; three fine efforts in handicaps in the autumn though, chasing home Danzan at Ayr and then missing out by a nose at Newcastle when last seen 200 days ago; could have more to come this year; cheekpieces the headgear of choice today (blinkered the last twice).
