Won a 7f nursery in good style 12 months ago; off the mark for the year when well on top at the finish in a 1m2f handicap at Doncaster in July; fair efforts in two of his three runs since (unsuited by ground when disappointing on penultimate start); drop back into a Class 5 will help but stamina for this trip has to be taken on trust.

Can pull hard and has worn a hood for last five outings; raised his game, though, with the move up to 1m2f this summer, including for a clearcut win at Doncaster and a creditable fourth over C&D; flopped back at Doncaster last month but that was on tacky ground and he could bounce back on this return to AW.

Nine-race maiden, placed in 7f handicaps on two of his last three outings; latest was at this track (good to firm) where his head carriage in first-time cheekpieces seemed to suggest he had second thoughts but he did run on, so this first crack at 1m now looks in order.
