Form & Verdict
Hard to win with and when he was first past the post at Lingfield in January he was disqualified after his rider weighed in light; a repeat of his C&D third in April would give him good claims at this level and last time at Southwell can be forgiven; one to consider.

Two wins and two seconds to his name from nine runs over C&D, has always tended to do well around this time of year and has slid to a handy mark; odds-on to miss the break and will need things to fall right from stall 12 but there are positives.

Two wins (disqualified from one) and a close fourth to his name from four runs over C&D, his last success coming off 4lb higher in February; not as good or consistent now but unlucky not to go closer last time and the handicapper's given him every chance.
