Form & Verdict
Has progressed since stepping up in distance, winning at Chepstow (1m4f, good to soft) last month and Bath (1m6f, good to firm) a week later; handicapper has raised him 8lb but that may not stop this free-running 4yo from completing a hat-trick.

Landed a 'hands and heels' event over C&D in March and respectable efforts in two subsequent starts, latterly when second off this mark at Exeter (about 2m2f, also good; Green Sky tailed off) on Friday; on the premises again if this doesn't come too soon.
