Won five in a row last year (good-soft), including the 3m6f Highland National at Perth; has been rather quiet in last two races, as he was beaten 21l when third over 3m5f and then was pulled up at Kelso (4m); capable but a bit risky today.

Form & Verdict
Last win under rules came in a hunter chase 13 months ago; has registered four successive third places in staying handicaps and has to raise his game from somewhere, though mark continues to fall and he's in better form than many.
