Form & Verdict
Best known for his Wolverhampton exploits (both wins over 9.5f there), but proved he could handle Polytrack when beaten a nose over this C&D eight days ago; that was a steadily run contest, but he is due to go up 2lb from the weekend so he has to be respected.

Winless since 2024 and is having his first run on turf in three years; down to a career-low mark and has been in fair form in blinkers, but he's regressive and has returned three poor efforts in turf handicaps.
