Form & Verdict
Missed 2022; made a promising comeback when beaten a neck at Ripon in May, and might have found the ground too quick when 6l third of seven at Haydock two weeks later; lightly raced for his age and may still have untapped potential; goes well on soft ground and rain would increase his chance.

His last win came over C&D last July (good; off 1lb higher) and he stayed on for a close third at Hamilton (5f, good) a fortnight ago; could build on that latest performance now back up in trip; firmly in calculations.

Well handicapped on a clearcut win in a big field at Haydock (6f, good; 50-1) last summer but hasn't troubled the judge since, well held over the same C&D ten days ago; needs to rediscover his spark.

Front-runner; enjoyed a purple patch last summer, landing a big payday when scoring at Haydock in August; got the better of Fidelius over C&D on his return to action in January and he meets his old rival on 1lb better terms today; only fourth in a higher grade last time but he can make a bold bid back into 0-85 company.
