Following a two-month break he returned to form and landed a gamble in reapplied cheekpieces (retained) at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last Thursday; he's never finished better than seventh on turf and the surface switch is a concern, but he'll be tough to beat if reproducing anything like his latest form.
