Form & Verdict
One of his better runs when second of six in selling handicap at Thirsk (1m, soft) last month; however, there's a doubt about his stamina today and this 11-race maiden is probably vulnerable once more.

Belied 40-1 odds when placed in Sedgefield novice (2m4f, soft) in the autumn but ran very poorly on last month's handicap debut and is difficult to enthuse over after that performance; cheekpieces refitted.
