First past the post at Newcastle in October (7f; demoted to second); too free here next time but back in top form tried in a hood at Newcastle last month when beaten under one length into third (hood tried for the first time); headgear is left off this time but he's likely to give his running.

Three 7f wins on AW elsewhere, most recently at Southwell in April; a quick return didn't pay off there next time and he was always behind when returned to turf at Leicester last month; has run well over C&D in the past, though, so he may be more himself this time.

Modest form in two 7f runs last summer but he was gelded afterwards and took a big step forward when readily accounting for his eight rivals over 1m here last month; could well have better to come but such progress may be needed to defy this opening mark.
