Form & Verdict
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.

Began the year with a mark 24lb higher but it's been a struggle in handicaps, latterly for new yard; latest effort, when running into dead end after dead end in the straight at Haydock (7f, good; blinkers first time) was a bit more encouraging and he may have found his level now.

There have been enough good runs since November's Redcar win to think this mark was in range and this race is much weaker than the Haydock handicap three weeks ago in which he weakened out of things only inside the final furlong; didn't look the easiest ride there but he still makes some each-way appeal back in a 0-60.
