Form & Verdict
Very useful a few years ago but isn't anything like as good or consistent now; ended a long losing run in Jersey a month ago and, while it's unlikely that amounted to much, it won't have hurt confidence dropped a handy 4lb.

Generally consistent for Richard Hannon last year without winning (1m1f-1m4f); best of those to race prominently on comeback in April before a lesser effort down to 7f here last time (rain would help); possibilities under Simon Walker (14-48 for the yard).

Scored twice (over 1m1f) at Goodwood last summer; yet to hit top form this season though, a never-dangerous fifth of eight back at Goodwood (1m1f) last month; has slipped to a lenient mark though so needs considering in a headgear changed for in-form yard.
