Multiple wins on AW and turf; has done well for this yard and his 6f turf form in 2025 certainly bears scrutiny; respectable efforts back on grass of late and while not at full strength in either, he'll be suited by this stiffer test at 6f providing there's a good pace; form chance.

No win on turf since September 2024 but he ran well for third at Thirsk (6f, good) two weeks ago, form that has been boosted by the winner and second running well in big fields since; one to be interested in off the same mark.
