Much of last year was bitterly disappointing but he popped up at Windsor in July, running out the comfortable winner of a Class 4 handicap (6f, good) off a 2lb higher mark; retreated back into his shell after and although these conditions are suitable, he's not solid.

Returned from a break with a near-miss at Doncaster (6f, good) in March; made some good late headway when fourth at Newbury next time and she didn't get any luck in a Class 2 at Leicester since; looks interesting on this big drop back in grade and her last win was over C&D.

Turf win came over 7f on soft ground; his last three wins have come at Kempton over 7f and he ran well for third off this mark there in May; can probably find 6f handicaps on turf but perhaps at either a stiffer track or on slower ground.
