Tricky customer but in good form over C&D lately, notably when sweeping from last (started slowly) to first three weeks ago; every chance of following up if in a similar mood, with a good chunk of his 4lb rise offset by Mason Paetel's claim.

Ex-Irish 6yo; mixed record in five runs for current yard but he scored at Wolverhampton (9.4f) on Boxing Day and was a good third behind an improver at Southwell (1m3f; first-time visor) two weeks ago; has possibilities if he can back that up and he's respected.
