Form & Verdict
Raced only at 6f so far, winning at Kempton (AW) in April and narrowly denied at Windsor (good to firm) the following month; should be just as effective at 5f and is open to improvement now tackling a handicap for the first time; has to be respected.

The addition of blinkers saw him take a good step forward when comfortably seeing off 17 rivals at Newbury (6f, soft) last October; absent until Derby day three weeks ago where he was never a threat; the blinkers now return and dangerous to underestimate him.

Form & Verdict
Both his wins have come over 5f, and he should be suited by today's drop back to the minimum trip after fading into third at Doncaster (6f) three weeks ago; each-way claims.

Never out of the first three in seven starts, making a winning reappearance in a Catterick novice (5f, good) in May and going down by only a neck in a handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago; up 1lb but still a major player.

All three runs over 5f at Newcastle; easily landed the odds in maiden when last seen in March; that's weak form but he's a promising gelding with a useful sprint pedigree and it's unlikely he's reached his limit just yet.
