Dual winner here, latterly over C&D last November off an 8lb higher mark; hasn't been in much form but she doesn't seem to particularly like Catterick or soft ground and a better showing can be expected down in class.

Ex-Irish gelding who was all the rage in the market on debut for new trainer here on Saturday, when inclined to race freely behind Sexy Rexy after taking an early bump; longer trip fine if he settles and is evidently felt well handicapped.
