Still a maiden but he arrives in good nick, fourth of ten in 1m Newcastle handicap 23 days ago; that form has worked out well so he's very much one to consider eased 1lb.

Both wins have came on AW over 1m2f at Lingfield this year; beaten 20l at Kempton (1m) in May and it may be best to wait until he returns to his favoured track.

Good AW effort when beaten a head for this yard in February and it was a fair third at Windsor (also 1m2f) last month; that was just his fourth turf start so maybe he can build on it.

Began 2026 with two good placed efforts over 1m2f at Lingfield; easy enough to strike a line through latest effort as he ended up poorly positioned in a race run at a stop-start tempo; drops in trip and steps up in class today; others appeal more.

In excellent form for his current yard, gaining a second course win over 1m in January before second of nine under a 5lb penalty in 1m Kempton handicap 15 days ago; he's a likely player once more.

Better than ever this term; doubled his tally on turf with big-field amateur riders' win at Doncaster (good to soft) in March and he scored again at Thirsk (also 1m, good to firm) in May; back in form when fourth at Goodwood last month and Jack Callan gets on well with him; yard going well; player.
