Prolific winner, mostly on AW and at 1m6f-2m, including C&D; 1lb higher than when scoring here in February; not quite as good in two subsequent starts but looks a player back up in trip and with the same claimer up as for that most recent success.

J: Silvestre De Sousa

Held on to win at Kempton (2m, AW) in February and posted a solid effort when fourth at Southwell (2m, AW) 84 days ago; off since and this drop back in trip probably isn't ideal on his first outing on turf since September 2023.

2-31 under rules (0-15 on the Flat), but only beaten a short head at Chelmsford (2m, Polytrack) last month and looked unfortunate not to go closer when beaten less than 3l behind Further Measure here (2m) the time before; 6lb better off with that rival and shouldn't be far away.
