Form & Verdict
Notched first win since September 2021 when scoring at Chelmsford (1m2f; same mark) in January; subsequent efforts underwhelming, although there was a valid excuse over C&D (heavy; hampered leaving stalls) a fortnight ago; quicker ground helpful, and has won for Oisin Murphy previously.

Form & Verdict
Yet to win (0-18) and has run just twice on turf; placed in two of his last three AW starts (both over 1m2f at Lingfield), including when worn down in the closing stages 18 days ago; fit and well which could count for plenty against such limited opposition; one to consider.
