Form & Verdict

Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but has responded positively to this headgear combination the last twice in handicaps over 2m5f and 2m3f (both on good); strong stayer on the Flat so this longer trip is worth a go.

Disappointing at Newcastle in January and well beaten here a fortnight ago on his first run since; has something to prove but can't be ruled out off current mark, which is 5lb lower than when winning last August.

Won over C&D in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) in February, both from the front on good to soft; disappointing in his two runs in between and again on latest start but he was brought out quickly under a penalty in the latter; visor replaces his usual cheekpieces.

Best form has come on AW but he's run just twice on turf and soft ground may not have been ideal at Thirsk last month; respectable third at Southwell (2m, AW) previously and not ruled out.

All five wins have been over 2m on AW; couldn't pose a threat at Lingfield last month but the drop back to 1m5f looked against him and he went very close on his Wolverhampton reappearance in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities back at his optimum trip.
