Only fourth off this mark at Southwell last week but this track seems to suit him ideally and he is 3-4 over C&D; not sure he is fully exposed at 7f just yet and he looks a major player.

Invigorated by a step up to 7f this winter, winning three times at Newcastle; latest success was smooth and a 4lb rise does not look harsh; leading contender again if proving equally effective at Southwell.

Seven AW wins include one over C&D, and his two most recent 7f runs, here in February and at Southwell 11 days ago, were up there with his best efforts over the last year; likely to need extra from a high draw though.

Form & Verdict
Proving expensive to follow of late and his effectiveness on AW is still to be proven; stepping back up to 6f could help though and his rider takes off a handy 5lb.

Popped up from nowhere when winning in a first-time tongue-tie over C&D (soft) nine days ago; well drawn as it turned out that day and recent history suggests he's no certainty to repeat the effort, back up 4lb and into a better race.

On a long losing run and he went too freely in first-time cheekpieces for his new yard when a below-par fourth of eight in 5f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; tongue tied now with more required.

Five wins in 2025, including C&D, but rather going through the motions this time around; showed a bit more spark with his front-running sixth at Kempton in May; on a manageable mark and the type to come good again soon.

Dual AW winner (6f/7f) but his last success was 17 months ago and he's been up and down in five runs this year; ran too freely at Lingfield last time but that was a disappointing run as favourite and he needs to bounce back again after that.
