Form & Verdict
Won twice over this trip for Jane Chapple-Hyam last season (AW/good to soft); hasn't regained top form this season, although better run when sixth at Goodwood on stable debut last time (1m1f, good; tongue-tie tried); fast ground is a slight concern, but he's well treated and a player.

Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last month for Jack Morland and, following a 22,000gns sale, he was back with his former yard when following up in 15-runner race at Ascot (upped to 1m4f, good to firm; always close up) four weeks ago; back up another 7lb but his peak 2024 form (a win on good to soft here) was better still; on the shortlist.

Won twice in 2024 for Jane Chapple-Hyam; spent a year with Jack Morland and got off the mark for him at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) 19 days ago; sold again for 22,000gns one day later and this is his first run back with his former yard; back up 4lb and not proven beyond an extended 1m2f (unraced over this far); tongue-tie and headgear worn for his last yard is removed; quite a few questions, but peak 2024 form was a bit better.

Both wins came in May 2024 over about 1m2f when trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam; closest since when beaten a neck at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last month in first-time blinkers (retained since); still well handicapped on his best form.

Soft ground provides an excuse for below-par effort last time; solid record (1333121) otherwise for current stable and gained the most recent success, at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm), in game fashion; remains of interest.

In very good form since being upped to 1m2f, which continued when he won at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last month; it's a long time since he ran well on slow ground but he's in the mix if the surface isn't an issue.
