Three-time winner on turf at 6f-6.5f with all three victories coming on soft or heavy ground; has gone well on good ground, however, including when beaten a neck in this race last year off 11lb higher; below best latest but may have needed that and he could go well at a price. |

9st 4lb |
Three 6f wins on AW this year and he only narrowly failed to improve on a very modest turf strike-rate (now 1-35) when just touched off at Hamilton (5f, good) this month; no serious impact at Catterick (7f) since but ran well in headgear in Ireland and cheekpieces are now refitted. |

Three 6f AW wins this year for new yard and short-headed at Hamilton (5f, good) eight days ago when back on turf; there can be optimism that he will be fine back up to 7f and he's a strong contender. |

Lightly enough raced since his last win two years ago; well beaten over seven at the Curragh last week but had run quite well in handicaps over this trip on soft ground prior to that; career low mark today and no surprise should he be involved although ground might not be soft enough. |
