Lightly raced maiden; good late work in two runs on this track in June, over 1m and 1m2f, but his effort petered out when upped to 1m4f at Kempton last month; stamina query for now; cheekpieces fitted.

1-17, with that win coming off 1lb lower at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in September when sporting first-time cheekpieces; respectable effort there over 2m in April but he virtually refused to race on turf two weeks ago and was soon pulled up; best watched.

Has been in competitive form on the AW but that's more his scene and he was only eighth of 11 on his previous turf start, albeit at a top track; could be given another chance on this surface.

Form & Verdict
Three turf wins at 1m2f in 2021 but often a weak finisher over 1m4f; no impact in novice and maiden hurdles for new yard in the spring and although on a fair mark there may be other days now back from a break.

Won on Polytrack as 2yo but three later wins on Tapeta, at 1m4f to 1m6f; hard to recommend at present as he's been a slow starter since his most recent win in March and was way back at Wolverhampton in August.

Form & Verdict
Three AW wins in 2023, over 1m2f on this course and 1m3f at Southwell; has slipped in the weights and he appreciated the return to the latter course when second of nine there last week; one of the better ones but he needs to show he can equal the run over the extra furlong back here.

Early wins at 6f and 1m2f as well as one over hurdles for James Nash; out of sorts on the Flat and over hurdles in Ireland this year but he wasn't beaten too far at Ayr (1m2f) in May 2023 and now 16lb lower on debut for up-and coming yard following £2,500 sale; market check enlightening.
