Well suited by AW and although he is yet to win off a mark this high, he has plenty of form that gives him a fighting chance; can step up on last week's return to action and he holds each-way claims.

Form & Verdict
Ended 2023 with 1m maiden success at Chelmsford and he resumed with a very good third of 14 in 10f handicap there four weeks ago, despite not enjoying the smoothest of passages; he can go well again despite taking a 3lb rise in the weights.

Winner at Redcar (2m, good to soft) and Musselburgh (1m6f, soft; by 10l) last term; not disgraced back on Flat at Newcastle (1m4f) in March; cheekpieces get their first airing since October and stepping back up in trip should suit, so he needs a close look.
