Seen more regularly on turf and it's over two years since her one AW win (6f) but she's been running well off much-reduced mark of late; shouldn't be too far away if no ill effects from leaving off the headgear.

Multiple AW wins include three over C&D; losing run on sand goes back nearly a year but things didn't go his way when returned to Polytrack 20 days ago and he can't be dismissed at this level off a manageable mark.

Form & Verdict
Winless in 2023 but there's been no holding him since winning a classified event in June and he answered the call promptly when making it four wins from his last five starts, on Chelmsford Polytrack (6f) 24 days ago; up 6lb and in grade but hard to be sure the handicapper has caught up.

Hard to weigh up on lesser turf efforts for new yard of late and he has an awkward draw but temptingly weighted both on C&D wins in 2022 and his Tapeta form early in 2024; one to consider.

Gained due reward for a string of good efforts this year when landing his fourth AW success, at Lingfield (6f) a fortnight ago; 0-13 on turf but he's capable on this surface and had no luck when beaten just over 2l under a penalty at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last week; chance.

Very useful 6f handicapper at his best but he hasn't gone on from a good reappearance in April and he's no good thing to improve on a 0-8 record on AW, even though he did have C&D form in the past.

Took advantage of his drop in the weights when coming from well off the pace to win at Wolverhampton three weeks ago (7f; second run for Alice Haynes); unexposed at this trip and it does allow him the chance to organise himself (usually gets it wrong at the stalls); still not an obvious one to follow up though.
