Form & Verdict
Got off the mark on just his second run for current yard in 1m6f Salisbury handicap 17 days ago, coming late off a good pace; up 4lb but he's effective over this longer trip and not taken lightly.

2m winner in this sphere; stayer on the Flat; not disgraced over C&D (good) returned to hurdles but his effort rather petered out after pulling hard; chance partly depends on whether he settles better.

Form & Verdict
It's now 12 starts since his last win but this course scorer arrives on the back of a solid third over 1m4f here eight days ago so can't be discounted off a 2lb lower mark.
