Form & Verdict
Both wins were for his former yard and latest was at Beverley (8.4f) last summer; showed signs of a revival when close fifth at Kempton last month but he was well below that form at Beverley two weeks ago; blinkers now return but losing run is up to 11 and others are preferred.

Belated regained the winning thread, with eyeshield added, at Ffos Las but has failed to back up that form in two starts since; on a revival mission in the retained headgear combination.

The eyeshield was new (joining blinkers) when winning well at Ffos Las and reportedly unsuited by rain-softened ground when nowhere back there off this 7lb higher mark; could be given another chance; 0-14 on the AW but runner-up three times.

Down the field ten days ago following a break, when usual front-running tactics weren't adopted on first start since rejoining this yard; however, running well in defeat otherwise this year and he's a two-time C&D winner; probably fine on good to soft, unproven on soft; could make a bold bid.
