Form & Verdict
Seemed to have lost his way following a promising 2yo debut but first-time blinkers spurred him on at Southwell (1m) last month, when he buckled down well to nail a fair yardstick (has won since); however, overall record suggests he might not fancy it as much this time.

Form & Verdict
Had been on a losing run but he benefited from first-time cheekpieces (retained) and seizing the initiative some way out when a clear C&D winner last month; back up 6lb but not weighted out of it on earlier efforts and has definite possibilities now he's made his way back to form.

It looked as if his turn may be near when third on his final three starts of 2024 (twice over C&D); beat only one home when last seen 166 days ago but he was hampered inside the final furlong; usually held up so needs things to drop right.
