Form & Verdict
Usually slowly away; co-second favourite for reappearance over 1m here (good) three weeks ago and he got off the mark at tenth attempt, leading over 2f out for a clearcut win in second-time cheekpieces; back up 5lb and more to prove at 1m2f but may have turned over something of a new leaf.

Secured a fourth win (three on turf) when taking Lingfield handicap (1m2f, AW) on his April reappearance but that hasn't been backed up in two subsequent starts; latest fourth was a step back in the right direction, however, when shaping like this first attempt at 1m4f is worth a go; 1-1 here and he holds each-way prospects.

Acts on good to firm and good to soft; reappeared with a comfortable AW win in April but he's not easy to predict and was tailed off back on turf at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) last month; needs to bounce back again after that but he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form.

Front-runner; latest win was under Mason Paetel here (1m2f) early last July for Ed Dunlop; 4lb lower today but that's after he went off the boil and there's been only a partial revival for new yard this year, finishing sixth of nine here last time in the race he won last year; the last time he raced over a trip this short was May 2025.

Boasts a good record at Pontefract, where he should have notched a fourth win early last month, and today's similarly stiff 1m2f should suit; not as consistent now, unsurprisingly given his age, but is still more than capable at this level.
