Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing.

Only fifth of nine over C&D (soft) last month but went off too hard in first-time cheekpieces (retained); completed a hat-trick on soft/heavy ground last autumn and he was also on the scoresheet at Sandown (5f, good) this June; all those wins came under Grace McEntee who is back on board today.

Multiple sprint wins on ground ranging from good to heavy; back to best when making all at Sandown in June and he might have needed the run there last week following a break; now goes in cheekpieces which raises a question as blinkers weren't a successful addition in the past.

Useful as 2yo, winning twice before finishing third in the Group 3 Molecomb; went the wrong way in 2025 and has made a low-key return to action in recent weeks; the visor worn last time is discarded and replaced by blinkers; can only watch until showing more.

Both wins were on turf in 2024 but he's well treated on old form and has run respectably on Tapeta (5f/6f) in last two starts; can make the running and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid back in this sphere.

Having tumbled down the weights there were signs of a possible revival when keeping on for third in a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton last week (attracted support); Rossa Ryan retains the ride and today's return to 6f won't be an issue; can't discount.
