All three wins have been at Wolverhampton but ran well behind Pockley over C&D last month; not ideally drawn when below best last time but couldn't rule out here.

All three wins have come at this track (6f/7f) and he's run respectably in classified events on Tapeta in last two starts; on dangerous mark back in a handicap and has possibilities if he can find something extra.

Did well to win at York (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in August but only fourth of five in the Great Metropolitan at Epsom (also 1m4f, good, Topteam behind) 17 days ago; that was a shade underwhelming given he'd won the race in 2025 but was a little weak in the market so maybe better can be expected this time.
