No win since December 2023 (C&D maiden); runner-up from higher marks than this on two occasions in late 2024, but low key on the Flat this year (0-4); tongue-tie returns, with cheekpieces added, since this month's Stratford fifth; better to focus elsewhere.

Two-time C&D winner; near miss at Beverley in July (1m2f, good to firm) and he ran to a similar level at Ripon last month (1m3f, good); caught wide when underperforming at Pontefract last week; dangerous at this level in an uncompetitive race; jockey having first ride as an apprentice (0-5 as an amateur).

Form & Verdict
Beaten 14 times since sole win in July 2021 but that was over C&D; perhaps unsuited by soft ground nowadays, which excuses last month's performance at Ayr, and he posted two good second placings prior to that (including over C&D); can be thereabouts if bouncing back from last time.
