Now 0-8 but does have some quite solid handicap form to his name this summer, particularly over this trip; weakened towards the finish when third of eight at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) five weeks ago; firmly in the mix with the drop back to 7f a help if anything.

Recorded his 12th AW win when scoring at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but he flopped under a penalty there eight days later; has bit to prove again after that heavy defeat but he has won three of his last seven starts and is capable of bouncing back.

Beat a serial loser of late over C&D three weeks ago, taking Hector Crouch's record on him to 2-2; 4lb rise is of no great concern considering he's been rated much higher in the past; handy draw.

Nine of his 12 wins have been on AW, the latest from 5lb higher at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in March; not beaten far into fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m, soft) last month and he has to be of interest in this field.

14-race maiden; best British effort came here in February, when 2l second over C&D; that form would probably be good enough to win this but he's not been as good since on either turf or AW; still entitled to each-way claims after another 2lb drop.
