Yet to add to his two Irish wins in 2023 but has performed well twice this month, finishing second in Windsor handicap (11.4f, good to firm) and fourth in classified race here (1m4f); this drop back in trip ought to suit; probably won't be far away.

All six wins have been on Polytrack and five have been at Lingfield; lost his way in 2025 but he's shown some encouraging signs in classified events this year, including when third here (1m2f) on his penultimate run; has plenty of form over C&D and he could be dangerous off reduced mark.

Won when cheekpieces were first fitted and again when they were reapplied early in the year, so it's a plus point that they are back on today; not shown much since leaving Ian Williams but soft ground was no good to him last time and he'll be happier back on the AW.

Generally consistent in his time with Ian Williams when he scored three times on AW from 1m to 1m2f; second start for this yard wasn't devoid of promise at Kempton (1m4f) 17 days ago but suitability for the combination of this trip and likely ground is yet to be determined.
