Form & Verdict
Came away with Mystical Land and Mademoiselle Belle when justifying good support on his C&D comeback in January; below that level off his revised 4lb higher mark at Southwell last time and needs more to confirm earlier superiority.

Form & Verdict
Still to finish placed and he was turned over at short prices on his last three starts, again pulling too hard and not seeing it out a month ago on his first start since being gelded; evidently felt capable off this mark; cheekpieces replace a visor and a tongue-tie goes on.

String of solid efforts in the tongue-tie/cheekpieces combination prior to a poor one last time; that came on turf, though, and he'll be happier back on the AW and over an easy 6f, plus he's well drawn for one happiest up front for a yard in fine form of late.

0-9, his best run when second to an unexposed rival over 5f at Newcastle AW in January; beaten 26l on his return to turf at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) 13 days ago and has slipped to a career-low mark; doesn't look ready to capitalize.

Had plenty of racing now; things panned out perfectly in first-time cheekpieces over C&D last month (favourite Mystical Land had excuses back in fifth) and a 4lb rise demands more.
