Both wins have been on AW at Lingfield (1m2f) and latest was off 1lb lower in April; mixed results in last four runs, but he was good third at Wolverhampton (1m4f) two weeks ago and has claims if he can back that up.

Fair third at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 15l at Epsom last month; now drops back in grade but overall record is 1-20 and he comes with risks attached.

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.

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; was better than ever with those wins but he's not threatened in his last three starts and he's still 5lb higher than for his last success; others are more persuasive.
