Form & Verdict
Looks smart on his day and although he can be the architect of his own downfall, he didn't do too much wrong at Wolverhampton 13 days ago, simply unable to peg back a winner who got first run; has won over 6f but his last 13 starts have been at 5f; too much talent to ignore at this level and he's 1-1 at Lingfield.

All seven wins have been on AW; record of 0-16 on turf but he was only beaten a nose off this mark at Bath (5f, firm) on Monday; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and he's versatile ground-wise; regular hood is removed and cheekpieces return.

Made it an amazing seven wins for the year, all from the front, over C&D on Friday; subsequent 1lb rise and 4lb penalty sees him still just below his highest successful mark and there's every chance he can complete a two-month eight-timer.
