Clearcut win in first-time blinkers on turf here (7f, soft) last June; several creditable efforts since but he was disappointing at Bath in his final run last autumn; has bit to prove with headgear missing after five months and this is competitive for the grade.

Nine wins in his 91-race career and he was beaten by two noses (by Jackie Brown and Symbol Of Hope) over 5.7f at Bath on latest start, flying at the finish having been last of nine inside the final 1f; that classified race puts him back in the picture but Bath is his most usual hunting ground and his only appearance here was in 2023.
