He is a better horse on AW than turf; a much lower mark in this sphere reflects that but his 1-28 record on the grass doesn't mark him down as the likely winner of this.

Inconsistent but he is a smart performer, as when beating his 21 rivals at Doncaster last November (6f, heavy); raced exclusively at 7f since, with mixed results, but this mark isn't beyond him and a big run could be on the cards back down in distance.

Both wins over 5f; stays further, having finished better than anything when third of 21 in the Portland at Doncaster (extended 5f, good) last September but this is only his second run in a 6f turf handicap (faded in the first of them) so still has stamina to prove.

Far from straightforward and his best form has come on AW; two good runs and three poor runs since joining Ruth Carr, his latest Newcastle fourth (blinkered first time) falling into the former category; not the most solid option but he is better than this level on his day and it is always worth a second look when Billy Loughnane is booked for the stable (four wins and four seconds from 22 rides).

Blew hot and cold for Jack Channon and signs that it may be the same for new connections, shaping well at Wolverhampton in February but turning in lesser efforts twice since; well handicapped if this is one of his good days and the return of cheekpieces (first time for Ruth Carr) looks a plus.
