T: Linda Perratt

All of his ten wins have been at Newcastle, including six over C&D; failed to beat a rival in his two runs this season but he bounced back with an emphatic win in this race last year; looks well handicapped on that form and is a player if he can get back on track.

Patchy record this year and well beaten in amateur races on turf the last twice; on a dangerous mark, notwithstanding that he'll be 2lb lower from the weekend, and a revival wouldn't be a bolt from the blue.
