Recorded his tenth win when scoring at Wolverhampton (2m, Tapeta) in January; held his form with creditable efforts in next three starts but his good spell came to a halt at Lingfield last month; has bit to prove again after that heavy defeat and his last turf win was in 2022.

Multiple winner who arrives in form, his success at Wolverhampton (Tapeta) in January followed by solid third at Kempton (also about 2m, Polytrack) a fortnight later; ran well for second over extended 2m2f here three weeks ago and just as effective over this shorter trip; warrants respect.

Form & Verdict
4-8 in handicaps over 1m2f+, showing his best form over 1m5f here three weeks ago when keeping on strongly in a first-time visor; had proved no match for Appier when second at Newcastle on his penultimate start and he's worse off with that rival today.

Hasn't had much go right in his last two starts and is best known for his Polytrack exploits, as when successful off 4lb higher at Kempton (1m3f) in April; finished second of 14 over this C&D as a 3yo, though, so certainly one to be interested in.

Both career wins on Polytrack by over 4l, the first here and the second at Chelmsford last month; perhaps unsuited by bigger field and reportedly ran flat when finishing last in race won by Solution latest; cheekpieces could help him to bounce back.

Odds-on favourite when winning a C&D maiden last August (for Roger Varian); no better than midfield since returned to the Flat for current yard (fell on hurdle debut in February) but he ran okay at Kempton in April (met trouble) and this represents a drop in grade; contender.
