Won two of his last five starts (with and without headgear), scrambling home at Leicester (1m, good to firm) 18 days ago; a 2lb rise not excessive and he has a good strike-rate for one of his rating; chance.

Back to winning ways at Lingfield (1m) in February but his more recent form is not so encouraging, tenth in 1m Doncaster handicap two weeks ago; needs to take a step forward.

Now 0-13 and has his bad days, but he raced up with the pace here last time and only just missed out; that was only his second start in the blinkers.

8.4f second or third last spring on his three outings at this track, twice from the front; two 1m wins at Ripon last summer, showing form which has not been recaptured this season but he has a competitive mark.

Did pretty well to finish fourth on recent seasonal debut at Thirsk (1m, good to firm), given he raced too freely, and he's now back on same mark as when pipping Travis at Ripon (1m, good) last summer.

Landed a sixth success when winning a 12-runner handicap at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft) in July; kept at in when fourth at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) under a penalty six days later and excuses both starts since; very much respected.

J: Sam James

T: Craig Lidster

Had a productive time of things in 2025 when the visor went on, winning on four occasions, including over this C&D last June; well beaten on the AW at Newcastle in November and he was too free on his comeback run at Ripon (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; may take a step forward from that but will need to.

Had a highly productive time on turf last season including four wins (1m1f/1m2f) and four seconds; struggled in his hat-trick bid in November but that was on AW and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; interesting contender who needs a close look on return.
