Scored by 3l over C&D in first-time blinkers on handicap debut in November but his next two runs were disappointing and he managed only fourth of seven when tried in first-time visor (retained) here (5f) last month; back up in trip and needs to kick on again.

Speedy 3yo who made all at Catterick (6f, good) in May; raced alone against the far rail when sixth of 12 at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June and shaped when fourth at Leicester (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago as though the return to 5f would be well worth a go; could make a bold bid.

Front-runner who gained his third win when holding on to land a Catterick handicap over 6f in May; ran well at Doncaster (6f, good) next time and it looks worth forgiving last month's Newcastle effort (5f, AW), having raced alone towards the far rail; could go well.

Headgear and a switch to minor handicaps have seen good progress since November, including scoring twice over 6f here; won again at Catterick (6f, good; made all) last month and good third of 14 at Doncaster (6f again) since; while best form has been at 6f, the speed he's shown in recent starts suggests he should be equally effective at 5f; likely to go well.
