Made the running when third over C&D in July; looked rusty back from a break at Catterick four weeks ago; dangerous on the penultimate effort and first-time blinkers and the booking of Billy Loughnane offer hope of a full revival.

J: Ryan Kavanagh

T: Ian Williams

Five of his six wins have come on AW; didn't look straightforward without usual hood or tongue-tie (back on here) when fourth of seven at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; two things in his favour here are that he is the only distance winner in the field and this represents a drop in grade, so he needs to be considered seriously.

Useful in his prime and he ended his barren spell at Chelmsford in May (6f); followed up over 7f a fortnight later and he was back in the winners' enclosure at Wolverhampton last week (7f; front two clear); still looks ahead of the handicapper under a 4lb penalty.
