Improved plenty on the AW last winter, completing a four-timer over this trip on Polytrack/Tapeta; ran consistently well afterwards and soft ground a possible excuse for a below-par effort at Goodwood last time; first visit here, but still much respected back on Polytrack.

Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but he's capable of useful 6f form on grass and made short work of his rivals at Bath (extended 5f, good) last week; now 6lb higher but this mark isn't beyond him on past exploits; would have welcomed rain but still considered.

All six AW runs have been on Tapeta, winning twice over this trip at Newcastle earlier in the year and adding a turf success at Nottingham (6f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) last month; has to prove himself on Polytrack, but his consistency means that he cannot be dismissed.
