All eight wins have been on AW but he's lost his way with heavy defeats at Newcastle (12.4f, Tapeta) and Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in last two runs; still lightly raced on turf but he needs a major revival back in this sphere.

Ten-race maiden but he has run well in defeat off this mark on his last three starts, most recently at Newcastle two weeks ago (1m4f); was sent off at odds-on there - the fourth time he's been a beaten favourite - but he still looks likely to run his race and he holds place claims at least in new headgear.
