Five handicap wins (7f to 1m; four in a hood) in a productive 2025, including on a fast surface, and he looked unlucky when third of 15 at Glorious Goodwood (1m, heavy; Kaleido ninth) in July; probably needed reappearance in March and likely didn't stay 1m2f when never competitive three weeks later; this mark demands a return to his best, though.
