Dual Newcastle winner (6f, Tapeta) the winter before last and 17lb lower than when successful at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in June last year; down in grade, but not performing as though ready to exploit his plummeting mark and is still to conclusively prove he wants this far; cheekpieces return.

Stablemate of Laura's Breeze; two of his four wins have come over C&D; behind three of these on his return from 207 days off here last month, but stepped up from that when second of nine at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) six days later; 1lb drop since puts him back on last winning mark; interesting.
