Dual turf winner at 1m2f and 1m3f for Charlie Johnston last spring; has had some struggles since but he got back to form with a bang when winning by 7l here (1m4f, AW) last Monday; that was off a tumbling mark and he's a major player if he can repeat that form under a penalty.

Form & Verdict
Nothing like to force of old but unlucky not to finish closer than sixth in 0-85 event at Thirsk (1m4f, good to firm) 12 days ago, denied a clear run, and can go very well off a 2lb lower mark in this grade; cheekpieces (worn twice in 2023 without success) are given another whirl; major shout.
