Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark.

Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip.

Stays further and stamina got him home over 1m2f at Salisbury when the first-time blinkers probably helped as well; whether he'll be as good again remains to be seen, but he's only up 3lb and Oisin Murphy being aboard again is a positive.
