Form & Verdict
Pushing two years since his last win; had a wind operation prior to an encouraging reappearance at Southwell in March; that hasn't proved a springboard to better things though and he carries risk, for all he's dropped a long way in the weights (due to be another 3lb lower from the weekend).

6yo who has won three times this season, including over C&D in June and at Hamilton last month; remains well handicapped on his old form but he didn't shine at Thirsk last time and it would be a worry if the forecast rain arrives (all turf wins have been on good/good to firm).

Comfortably won over C&D and at Wolverhampton on first two starts for Robert Cowell; back up another 7lb when creditable second at Catterick, which has been followed by a 3lb raise but 3lb-claiming rider is recruited; to win this may demand his best form since early 2024 but he's firmly in the mix.
