J: Darragh Keenan

A regular on the AW here (three wins) who's much higher in the weights than when last seen frequently on turf; generally consistent but whether he's up to this mark on grass is the leading question, and Quamby looks his trainer's best chance.

Form & Verdict
His Newbury win last August (7f, good to firm) represented strong form and he also ran well at Kempton one month later; generally disappointing for George Boughey this season and the handicapper has been slow to react; strong pace would help and he has too much ability not to pop up at some point; goes without headgear this time.
