Has had plenty of chances since last win in March last year and, although he handles a sound surface, his best efforts and the bulk of his turf wins came on soft/heavy.

Form & Verdict
Back in the groove this year, winning over 5f at Southwell in February and 6f at Wolverhampton last month; two more good 6f runs at Wolverhampton followed, picked off late on each occasion, and the return to 5f saw him trounce six rivals here on Friday night; well in under a penalty and hard to beat if in the same form.

Eight-time C&D winner who's into the veteran stage and on the downgrade, arriving on a losing run of 18; is entitled to have come on for last month's Southwell run, following a short break, and the return here will suit.
