Form & Verdict

Both wins have been on the Polytrack at Lingfield, last time winning by 2.5l in first-time blinkers over 1m5f; very much had the run of things that day but could be capable of defying the 5lb rise should the headgear continue to help.

Prominent racer who was in good form in midsummer, winning twice at around 1m6f in June; not at his best more recently but this represents an ease in class and he has won on AW (Tapeta); one to consider.

His ability isn't in question and he now lurks on a mark 6lb lower than for his 1m4f win here last June; however, his propensity to stand still in the stalls means he carries too much risk to support with confidence.

Went close over this sort of trip on AW in March but, after a successful stable debut at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) in June, he raced too freely (a regular trait) when well beaten by Gooloogong back there three weeks ago; hood goes on for the first time for this yard, which looks a smart move.

Eleven wins include one over C&D (soft; equally effective on good to firm) on yard debut in June; back up 6lb but has won off slightly higher marks on the AW and his latest Sandown third, where he kept persevering, suggests he should be on the premises again.

Rattled off a hat-trick over hurdles around the turn of the year; returned from 228 days off to win a Southwell handicap (1m4f; 50-1) in determined fashion 17 days ago and a 6lb rise looks manageable; the extra furlong won't bother him and he's high on the list.
