Drew clear to win by nearly 5l at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) in May, his second handicap, but found one too good when odds-on to follow up later that month and again let favourite backers down when only sixth of nine at Doncaster (1m2f, good) in July; moves up in trip here and may still have potential but has a point to prove.
