Stable is going well at the moment and this 8yo contributed with a clearcut win at Hexham (extended 2m7f, good) 15 days ago; up 5lb today; usually ridden in the last ten months by Harry Reed, who's on stablemate Pyramid Place this time but, on the face of it, this is the yard's stronger option.

C&D winner on stable debut in August and has shown fair form since, though he needs to be forgiven a below-par effort here last time over 2m4f; possible danger if returning to form now back up in trip.

C&D winner on stable debut in August and mainly fair form since; closely matched with Wee Alki on their clash over 3m here 17 days ago and the drop back in trip is maybe more in his favour; respected.
