C&D winner who also finished third in this last year; has been in good nick since the visor went on, winning a classified at Southwell and Newcastle (February/March) and placed in three handicaps (also 5f, AW) subsequently; can take a grip so today's likely good pace will suit and he gets on well with Conor Whiteley; player.

All five wins on AW, with the latest three coming under Ellie Mayo (5f-1m); led for a long way but faded into third at Redcar (1m, good) 63 days ago; has the tongue-tie added and probably needs a strong pace to aim at over this trip (won his only previous start over 5f).

Built on an eyecatching effort at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) early last month when winning back there 16 days ago; much respected from 4lb higher under Simon Walker, but a slight concern that he seemed well suited to the stiffer track at Newcastle.

Both wins have been on AW and latest was 11 months ago; 0-15 on turf but he had a near-miss at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and has run respectably in two of his three subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck.

Chased home Canaria Queen in a Nottingham classified event 11 days ago and 1lb better off for a head defeat today; ran another good race at Newcastle on Saturday, never nearer than at the finish; new blinkers replace cheekpieces; has the ability to win a race of this nature but he's an habitual slow starter so will always need some luck in running.
