Form & Verdict
Disqualified from a close fourth after his rider weighed in light last time but that still backed up a run of consistent efforts around 7f of late, including a narrow win off 2lb lower over C&D (good to firm) with Elettaria third (Rum Runner and Twilight Jazz further behind) in June; thereabouts again.

Regressive maiden who has been expensive to follow in recent times, including when in first-time cheekpieces/tongue-tie combination over C&D (good to firm; 11-4) on his penultimate start and when seventh of nine at Doncaster (1m; 4-1; just wore tongue-tie) last time; not the percentage call despite the handicapper's continued assistance and the return of cheekpieces.

Spent most of a long career racing at shy of 1m and didn't look to see it out in one try over this far (C&D); not as good now and can miss the break and/or pull hard, so comes with risks attached.
