The winner of eight of his 31 starts, the latest a 6f handicap here four weeks ago (solid form); 2lb rise demands another personal best and will do well to improve on last year's close second in the corresponding race.

Multiple wins include this race (good) in 2025, on sole C&D start, then won two of his next three starts; his form died down after that which leaves him well treated again, 5lb lower than his latest win; good claims but he did seem better for his reappearance when coming up trumps last April.

Ran well at Newbury on stable debut in August (5f, good to firm) but he has taken backward steps in two subsequent outings; down in the weights but likely to face competition for the lead; others are more appealing.

Form & Verdict
The winner of four 5f handicaps, most recently at Windsor in August off a 2lb lower mark; he has run creditably the last twice on soft ground that wouldn't have been his optimum, finishing 4lb behind Blind Beggar at Nottingham ten days ago; should get closer to that rival here.

C&D winner; stayed on well to land a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton in March and two defeats since have come over 6f; latest Lingfield effort was much better than the distance beaten suggests; 5f on quick ground suits ideally and more patient tactics in a well-run race could pay dividends.
