J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

He had been upset in the stalls when unable to justify favouritism on his stable debut in June but made no mistake when making all under Silvestre De Sousa at Ripon (6f, good) four weeks ago; 8lb rise still leaves him well treated on old form and he's of firm interest.

He's regressed and is winless since scoring over C&D in July 2024; only fourth of six on stable debut at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago but he was the 7-4 favourite and got upset in the stalls, and may have needed that run; interesting to see if he's again strong in the betting.

Two wins came over 6f in 2023 and 2024 when trained by Tim Easterby; no joy in four starts for David Loughnane and steps back to 5f on his stable debut; on a career-low mark and market watch is advised.

Did best of those in the stands' side group at York (6f, good to firm) in July and then kept on for third of nine at Southwell (6f, AW) 27 days ago despite not getting the best of passages; now down to a career-low mark and this dual C&D winner should appreciate stepping back up in trip.

He's struggled to get competitive on turf on his four starts since May, albeit he fared best in the near-side group at York a fortnight ago; Tapeta seems to be his preferred surface and he's 5lb lower than when going close at Wolverhampton (7f) in February; no surprise to see a big run.
