Form & Verdict
Standing dish here with all ten wins coming over 5f-7f at the track; bounced back from some moderate turf form with a decisive 5f win here latest, when supported; clobbered with a 10lb rise for that; hasn't won from a mark this high in over two years but is a player.

J: Alex Jary

T: Linda Perratt

All of his ten wins have been at Newcastle, including six over C&D; failed to beat a rival in his two runs this season but he bounced back with an emphatic win in this race last year; looks well handicapped on that form and is a player if he can get back on track.
