Had put in a couple of creditable efforts here before breaking his duck at the 18th attempt, running on to score decisively over C&D latest; a repeat effort would give him serious claims from this 4lb higher mark; respected.

Operating below a winning level kept mostly to 7f-1m this year; record of 033 granted 6f on turf (one place over C&D), never failing to record an RPR of at least 51, so this first assignment granted such a trip/surface combination since spring 2023 may be worth a go; blinkers added.

Two C&D wins; has been racing over 7f, a rival forcing a dead-heat off this mark at Chelmsford last May, but he had won over 6f there last March; finished a fair runner-up when making the running again here last month but likely more needed for the win.

1m course winner (in hood, tongue-tie and cheekpieces) in September, when with Tom Ward; some way below that level of form in two more starts for that trainer and on his recent first run for this yard, which was without headgear; cheekpieces return this time; bit to prove.
