Consistent since blinkers went on and will be 3lb higher from tomorrow for last Monday's Kempton near-miss (one of three to come away despite edging left); can miss the break and pull hard but could well get this run to suit, so needs considering.

Has improved a little on his last two starts after being gelded, finishing over 6l fourth in a Brighton maiden (7f, good to firm) before a creditable third (of five) in a Ffos Las nursery (1m, good to soft, Storm Alice fourth); cheekpieces now tried; a possible.
