Form & Verdict
Came from behind to win a C&D nursery in November and almost did the same when just failing to see out 7f two weeks later; up another 4lb for that but trip and surface suit him well and looks likely to take the beating.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: Ollie Sangster

Made all to win a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; had form at this trip in Ireland and he comes here in preference to an intended Wolverhampton run on Tuesday; suspicion remains that he's likely to prove a cut above this level.

Two creditable 5f efforts for this yard, including here, and he continues to edge down the weights; likely to be in the thick of it back at 6f.

Fair sixth on debut in a C&D maiden in September; poor run over 5f early last month; better when fourth of nine in first-time blinkers over 5f here last week; likely to be competitive in her first handicap.
