Competition for the lead likely didn't help when well beaten at Fakenham before Christmas (2m, soft); went mightily close on his one Flat run since, but has never returned from a break of anything like today's magnitude. |

Fair Flat racer who came good over hurdles at the fourth attempt when winning Fakenham maiden (2m, good) in April, but he jumped and ran poorly at Plumpton last month and needs to bounce back. |
