J: David Allan

Has improved since being fitted with a tongue-tie on his last two starts and got off the mark at Catterick (1m4f, soft) last month; it remains to be seen if he can follow up on forecast quicker ground but he is at the right end of the handicap to progress.

J: David Allan

Promising third at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) in April on second start but down the field in both handicaps (1m6f, good to firm) and a much bigger performance is needed in a first-time tongue-tie.

Form & Verdict
Made hard work of landing the odds at Lingfield latest (1m1f, good), but 3lb rise is fair and it could be there's further potential to unlock up at 1m4f given the Group-level middle distances winners on the damside; offered little in one novice start on soft last autumn.
