3-3 in 1m2f handicaps (good to firm and good; has handled heavy), impressive on latest Newmarket start; up further 9lb and has to show he can translate the form to this very different track but sharply progressive and of major interest.

Upped to 1m2f for his breakthrough win at Windsor in June and improved again when following up over C&D (again good to firm) three weeks ago; raised another 5lb but he's been knuckling down well and needs respect.

Form & Verdict
Cashed in on a golden opportunity with a runaway win at Kempton (1m3f maiden) in May but she's been well held in three handicaps since, most recently when third of six at Hamilton last month; mark is sliding but she's now 1-7 and others are more persuasive.

Probably acts on good to soft; made all when off the mark at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) in April and showed improved form when coming from towards the rear to win in fine style at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) on latest outing; the latter was a step up in trip and, although he's now 8lb higher, he may have more to give at around 1m4f.
