More exposed than the rest of these and the drop back to 1m in first-time cheekpieces (retained) didn't look to help last time; sole win came over C&D last summer, from the front off a 1lb higher mark, and the return to Tapeta should suit.

Often leads, as when a wide-margin AW winner on yard debut last September; has run many good races in defeat since, including when losing out late on to a stablemate over C&D (good to soft; pair clear) last week; due to go back up 2lb; drying ground no help but form claims otherwise.
