All of his four turf wins have been on good or slower including heavy; his last win was at Bath (5.6f) last September but he's finished down the field there in his last three runs; now drops back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark; regular hood is removed.

Form & Verdict
Big chance on 2024 best but he's yet to find his feet in 2025; not beaten far at Chepstow last time (cheekpieces on for the first time) but he was still only sixth of the seven runners; this is weaker and can't discount.

Both wins have come on soft ground and latest was at Chepstow (5f) last month; three creditable efforts since then and was only beaten 2l over C&D (heavy) last time, when the blindfold was removed late; looks interesting on this drop back in grade and a bold show is expected.
