Form & Verdict
Progressive over 6f on AW this year, winning twice; just a respectable third of six when back on turf at Hamilton last month but Brian Ellison reckoned the gelding was unsuited by the undulating track; may yet still have more to offer if stamina holds out on this first attempt at 7f.

All five wins have come here, the latest over C&D in December, and he was short-headed over 7f here on March 12; this hold-up horse was on the wrong end of a pace bias when 2l sixth over C&D last Saturday and could play a leading role if this pans out more favourably.
