Form & Verdict
Won first turf handicap, over 1m here in April, and he's had more on his plate against improvers/unexposed rivals since, albeit he drew well clear with one on a four-timer at Ripon (good; first-time cheekpieces, retained) last time; had 7f form on AW; has less to prove than some.

Looked a sprinter to follow when a ready winner of second 3yo start, at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) recently but the way he coped with that stiff finish suggests he should be effective back at 7f too; dangerous.

Just one win to his name from 21 attempts but he has finished second in two of his three runs this year and is still on a workable mark; new blinkers could spark something extra (ran well in one attempt in cheekpieces) and he's more appealing than many.
