Form & Verdict
Creditable third in a Newcastle handicap (1m4f, AW) on his final run for Michael Bell last season; had wind/gelding operations after that; well backed on his stable debut at Bath (11.6f, soft) in April and he stayed on well for a last-gasp win; 8lb higher on this step back up in grade but he's still lightly raced and is open to more progress at this new trip; respected.

Disappointing favourite at Ascot (2m, soft) last month and something to prove after that, but this lightly raced 4yo was progressive previously with wins at Bath (11.6f, soft) and over this C&D (good), and perhaps the first-time tongue-tie will help him bounce back to form with a big run.

Went very close off 2lb higher at Yarmouth (1m6f, good) last autumn but he's been generally disappointing since; had tough task behind Thursday's Gold Cup winner Courage Mon Ami at Goodwood on his return last month but he was a remote seventh of eight and that took his record to 1-9; others preferred.

Won his first two starts last July but he's 0-9 in handicaps since and was a well-held third of six when favourite at Southwell (1m6f, AW) in January; looks well treated on his best form at up to 2m but he has a patchy record and comes with risks attached on return.

The Cesarewitch was his only disappointment for new yard last season and his win came at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f, soft); 7lb higher today, nudged up another 1lb following his second at Goodwood (2m, good) on reappearance; respectable fifth at Royal Ascot keeps him in each-way calculations.

1m6f win at Sandown last July and beaten by a head over hurdles in November; those were two of the best efforts in a very in-and-out campaign (hampered on sole start here) and he was always behind when reappearing 12 days ago; wore cheekpieces on six of his last seven starts but they're off today.
