Form & Verdict

Refused to race when tried in cheekpieces at Ripon two runs back; showed no such tendencies without headgear last time when a game winner at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm); longer trip no problem but best form is on good ground or faster.

Progressive; followed up four-runner maiden win at Hamilton (1m3f, good) by landing a Bath handicap (1m6f, good to firm); solid run when close second at Chester last Saturday (1m6f, good to soft); should go well again.

Consistent 4yo who was off the mark over C&D last time when wearing blinkers for the first time (good); acts well on soft ground so has a chance despite 6lb rise.
