Inconsistent since going close at Lingfield in June; won off current mark in C&D event just over a year ago, the final leg of a hat-trick, and has a good chance provided he's back to that form.

Form & Verdict
Improved form at Kempton (AW) since switched to handicaps and wearing blinkers, neck second to Lazieelunch over 1m then winning over 7f; bare form suggests he'll cope with 9lb rise; may well have more to offer; respected in the retained headgear.
