Prominent racer; two Brighton wins this season, more recently in a small-field four weeks ago (6f, good); failed to build on it on soft ground 12 days ago; yet to shine in previous AW runs but he's found his level now and he's well drawn to go forward; major player.

Form & Verdict
Over two years since his last win but he's been doing his best to end the drought of late, finishing in the first four on his last six starts; not beaten far into third at Wolverhampton on Monday; new cheekpieces might help and this is weaker than anything he's contested before; leading contender.
