The return to turf, and to a visor from blinkers, has helped, with him a clear second at Hamilton before winning narrowly at Thirsk last Friday; is effectively 11lb higher under the penalty, which leaves him quite a bit on his plate.

Running well in the visor since returned to turf, following a close second with a win at Thirsk and it was a big personal best when first of 12 under a penalty at Chester (also 6f, good) last time; just 2lb higher and the hat-trick can't be ruled out.

Won a C&D maiden (soft) last August; well held in nurseries in final two 2yo runs but he reappeared with a good fourth over C&D in May and built on that when going close at Chester (6f, good) last month; still has potential as a sprint handicapper and he looks interesting off an unchanged mark.

Won Southwell novice (6f, AW) last December on first run for Joseph Parr; soundly beaten on final few starts for that yard but he's dropped down the weights and perhaps another change of scenery will revitalise him (changed hands for 10,000gns); not written off on stable debut.
