C&D winner who also finished third in this last year; has been in good nick since the visor went on, winning a classified at Southwell and Newcastle (February/March) and placed in three handicaps (also 5f, AW) subsequently; can take a grip so today's likely good pace will suit and he gets on well with Conor Whiteley; player.

Form & Verdict
Justified favouritism in a 6f 0-50 classified event at Wolverhampton on Monday but it was a tough watch for his supporters, rearing at the start, pulling hard in rear and then meeting some trouble in the straight; with that in mind, his 1l win was a fine effort and he has the raw ability to go well despite his penalty; dropping to 5f not sure to suit.
