Frequent slow starter who was the biggest price of his trainer's three runners when winning easily at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last Saturday, without the usual tongue-tie/cheekpieces, as today; had looked on the downgrade on the AW but happier on turf; leading claims back up 6lb.

Fair form in six outings at up to 1m3f on turf for Richard Fahey; switches to AW for a new stable (same owner) after a four-month break (has had wind surgery); also equipped with a first-time tongue-tie; betting perhaps the best guide to expectations.
