Form & Verdict
Perhaps didn't cope with being turned out so quickly when only sixth of ten at Musselburgh last time; had shaped quite well when second of nine at Southwell (7f; 5-2 favourite) six days earlier; should handle today's drop in trip and he's impossible to discount.

He has run a string of good races in 2026, winning for the second time when comfortably seeing off five rivals at Beverley (7.4f, good) last week; that effort was backed up by the Topspeed figure and he can't be discounted under a 5lb penalty.
