Four-time AW winner who returned to form on his second run after wind surgery when a front-running second at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month; record of 0-14 on turf but he's 6lb lower than last time and is well handicapped on his second at York last spring; respected.

Well handicapped on peak form and his midfield finish at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in March, on first run after wind surgery, was encouraging; he has a higher mark to contend with back on AW but this represents a drop in class and he shouldn't be underestimated.
