Won on seasonal reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, soft) but has failed to demonstrate improvement for stepping up in distance; placed from a 4lb higher mark at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) on penultimate start but well below par behind Huscari at Lingfield since; risky proposition.

Not the most consistent sort but enters calculations on last month's second over 2m at this venue, when those behind included King Kali (fourth) who was returning after a lengthy absence; three seconds from his last five starts, but lesser displays in between; blinkered first time.

Dual-purpose; sole success over hurdles came off 3lb lower at Bellewstown (2m1f, gd-yld) in April 2024 for Gavin Cromwell; yet to really hit form for this stable, though did run ok over 2m4f here in August; drops in trip and place chance if repeats that off 3lb lower.

Both wins were AW but best turf results were on soft/heavy; latest start (following two good AW runs) wasn't one of them, and that was also on soft, but he's been second and first in his two races under Frederick Tett.

Has done well in recent weeks, winning and finishing runner-up on the Polytrack at Lingfield (2m); feasibly weighted - 3lb above last winning mark - and, while he's yet to score on turf (0-6), he has shown he acts on soft and heavy ground; plenty of positives.

Well backed prior to running out the easy winner of a C&D handicap for amateur riders 18 days ago; enjoyed the run of things there but the handicapper could have taken a dimmer view of the win; fair chance up just 3lb.

All five wins have been over 2m on AW; couldn't pose a threat at Lingfield last month but the drop back to 1m5f looked against him and he went very close on his Wolverhampton reappearance in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities back at his optimum trip.

Perhaps flattered by his standout effort at Goodwood in October in a steadily run race (1m1f, good to soft); disappointing when sent off favourite for his handicap debut at Kempton in January (1m4f) and sold out of Amanda Perrett's yard for 4,000gns the following month; too soon to write off.
