Form & Verdict
Four of his six wins have come on Tapeta (6f-8.6f) and latest was off 7lb higher last spring; mixed results in his three runs this year but he didn't get any luck at Southwell (1m) last time and was a close third at Newcastle on penultimate run; will need a good pace back at this trip but he's not ruled out.

Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424.
