Gained his second success over C&D when winning here in January off a mark 5lb higher than today's; held in five starts since but he didn't shape badly when returned to 5f at Lingfield (AW) last time and has to enter calculations returned to this trip.

His five AW wins include one over this C&D; below his best at Bath (5.5f, good to soft) last time on his first start for 74 days but he was running well prior to that and returns to the AW off a handy mark; cheekpieces, worn last time, are discarded.

Authoritative win over C&D on first start for Chris Gordon last May and plenty went wrong when bidding to win that race again two starts ago (surely would have been heavily involved with a clear run); beaten into second at even-money on AW next time but the winner rather stole it; shortlisted.

Hampered by faller and pulled up at Lingfield in May, and withdrawn here three days later when jockey had concerns over how filly was moving and was not prepared to ride; however, she was just 7-2 at the time of withdrawal and this C&D winner is capable of playing a leading role off her last winning mark.
