On a career-high mark but he won well from the front at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in November when last seen and may remain competitive; dual scorer on turf and doesn't necessarily need to dominate.

Inconsistent gelding who's continued to pull hard since the hood went on; is a lot better off with Havana Prince than when second to him over C&D in the spring, though, and should be able to get some cover early from the inside stall.

His sole win was 13 months ago but he's placed in last three runs and his second at Catterick (1m4f) last time was behind a rival who was completing a hat-trick; now drops back to 1m but he's versatile trip-wise and is effective on Tapeta; shortlisted.

Pulled hard when turned over at odds-on in a weak-looking C&D fillies' maiden four weeks ago; has since moved yards and should be competitive off this mark if more amenable in a first-time hood.

Cheekpieces have helped and he didn't look to see out a stiff 1m2f last time, having come away with a subsequent winner off 2lb lower previously (1m1f); the question now is whether he'll have the toe for an easy 1m from the outside stall.
