Back to the mark off which he won at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last August; finished third in his first two runs this year but not at the same level on his last two starts; drops in trip/grade and could bounce back to form.

He will have something to prove if slow ground prevails and he was tailed off on his recent reappearance over 2m at Musselburgh; however, that was his first run beyond 1m3f and he went close over that trip at Carlisle last August, when 2lb higher; might not be a forlorn hope back down in trip.

0-15 but he had a near-miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month before a close fourth over C&D when not a lot went right; looks interesting on that form and he had an excuse on slow ground at Hamilton last time; not ruled out back on AW.
