Attracted support when winning at Chester (2m, heavy) around this time last year but on a losing run subsequently; on a handy mark now but was beaten 7l at Bath (1m6f, soft) 12 days ago; due to drop 2lb and market interest would boost his claims.

Just six starts and he's already on his third trainer but it was a fine start for Hayley Burton when beaten a neck for second in 14-runner amateur riders' handicap here (11.5f, good; winner declared 2:15) three weeks ago; this trip is probably worth a go and sound claims if he can back that up.
