Form & Verdict
Some may have written this 8yo off but he struck on his second start back from 483 days off last month; big run in defeat next time then given too much to do over C&D; squeak if this pans out better.

Form & Verdict
Winning handicap debut in March (1m, Kempton) but more miss than hit since; shaped well off second wind surgery/70-day break over 7f latest, his finishing effort possibly hindered by hanging right; claims if running straighter in slightly different headgear; dropped 3lb.

He has made good progress in the last 12 months, winning three AW handicaps in the second half of 2024 and taking another step forward when scrambling home at Southwell (7f) on his return in March; less good twice since and now drops to 5f for the first time; others perhaps better treated.

Form & Verdict
Scored off 90-day break for Richard Hannon in 2021 and 205-day break on debut for Mick Appleby this January; won three of his next five for current yard; a no show on turf last time is easy to forgive but he may be best watched without headgear.
