Running well for Iain Jardine since February, including wins at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March and Hamilton (5f, good) last week; unpenalised for that latest success, so 3lb well in, as he was when creditable third at Ayr (favourite) yesterday; should go well again if that hasn't taken it out of him.
