1-24 on turf (win was over 6f, soft); went close on AW on his penultimate start when 1lb higher, but needs to improve on his last two turf starts either side of that to be in the shake-up.

Form & Verdict
Had looked an exposed maiden over 7f-1m2f before he was successful dropped back to 5.5f at Doncaster (good to soft) last time; back up 3lb and in a slightly better race, but he remains of interest with his stamina likely to prove beneficial over this trip on this track.

Two wins at up to 6f on slow ground; has a squeak based on his Hamilton second in September but he's been badly out of sorts on his last three starts; steps up in trip but he's half-brother to two winners over it, so he could see it out; one of two in this for his trainer.
