Has largely respectable form this term, most recently fifth to Shimmering Sands over C&D; weighted to get closer to that rival on the revised terms and is on an attractive mark; still seeking first handicap win away from Beverley but can't be dismissed.

Both wins on AW and 0-18 on turf; a couple of Pontefract runs this spring that bring him into the reckoning and this is effectively his first run at this level since winning at Newcastle in December; should run his race.

11yo who has plenty to prove on the evidence of this year's three runs; however, he's 6lb lower than when winning at Redcar last October and perhaps the return to Carlisle will trigger a revival, with his course form figures reading 4106231.

Form & Verdict
No immediate improvement for the switch to handicaps when sixth of eight at Haydock two weeks ago (extended 1m2f, good); didn't see much daylight between 2f out and 1f out there though and it was a higher grade; dropped 2lb and could yet rate higher.

Four months off before winning a six-runner race at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) early last month; disappointing in a maiden hurdle (fourth at 10-11) 12 days later but remember also that he raised his game markedly when upped to 1m6f on Flat last autumn; this first 2m Flat assignment is interesting.

Dual 1m6f Flat winner who has finished runner-up in novice/maiden hurdles (2m/2m4f) in his last two runs; returns after four months off but he's only 1lb higher than for his last win and it would be a positive if the forecast rain arrives; needs a close look back on the Flat.
