7f AW novice winner; runner-up in four of his five handicaps, including C&D last month; got going too late over 1m at Doncaster since and the return to further should suit, as could more severe headgear (first-time blinkers for cheekpieces); unlikely to be far away.

Two wins last year (including C&D) and he's 7lb below his last winning mark; there has been the odd bright moment this season and he was a close fourth of seven at Redcar a fortnight ago, but it's been a regressive campaign and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims.

Well handicapped now, lower than for last season's two wins (both 1m, good to firm), and notable that he was sent off favourite at Chester three weeks ago (extended 1m2f, good to firm); could not reward the support, again unable to pick up from off the pace, and he is risky, for all he has the ability if things set up favourably.

Has made the frame on all four starts in maiden/novice events, although Tajawal was merely pushed out to see him off quite comfortably at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last time and not sure a 6lb swing in the weights is enough for him to reverse those placings.

In the form of his life when winning four in a row for Ben Brookhouse last summer, namely a maiden hurdle followed by three Flat handicaps over 1m2f and 1m4f (twice) on good/good to firm; better effort in Bahrain for George Baker this year when third of seven over 1m2f (good to firm) five weeks ago; returns to Britain on a career-high mark and may prove vulnerable to less-exposed sorts.
