Just did enough to win on soft ground at Windsor in April but his form has slumped since, and he was particularly disappointing when tried in blinkers (now removed) this month; arrives here with a point to prove.

C&D winner for Nigel Tinkler in November; off the mark on turf with a game effort at Windsor last month (Class 5; 6f, soft); slowly away and below par at Bath last week, but he's better than that and looks set to go well with Rossa Ryan back in the saddle.

Form & Verdict
In-form maiden who has raced mainly on AW; unlucky second at Southwell (5f) most recently, as he might have won but for a tardy start and hanging late on; effective at 6f and has possibilities provided he takes well to new headgear.

Longstanding maiden who was turned over at short prices a few times in the spring before out of his depth latest (tough stall); is odds-on to fluff the start but should do better if getting away under a 7lb claimer.
