Out of form since 5f Bellewstown win over a year ago, now 20lb lower than career high; not out of the question that she could feature if the addition of cheekpeices do the trick.

Banged at the door through the 2024 campaign but last season was disappointing and no sign of the tide turning this year, including when standing still in the stalls at Redcar in July; a hood goes back on today but he has to prove his stamina and others are much more persuasive.

Still seeking a first handicap success; huge chance on his 2024 form but he went the wrong way last season and his return to action at Doncaster last month was uninspiring; he has had a wind operation, his second, since but there are risks attached.
