Won over C&D in January; runner-up at Southwell (1m6f) next time and has won over 1m6f at Wolverhampton and Southwell on his two starts since; his wins have been narrow ones, meaning he is climbing the weights only slowly, and there can be optimism this progressive 5yo has more left in the tank.

Seemed to win with a bit more in hand than the margin would suggest when beating Charencey by a neck in a 0-50 apprentice classified event at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) one week ago; stamina not in doubt over this longer trip having won over 1m6f at the same track last month; high on the list.

She had signalled a breakthrough might be coming and it duly did in four-runner event at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) on Thursday; can probably cope with this drop back in trip but a 5lb penalty for that nose success does make life harder; still respected.

Handful of fair efforts in the spring but he's a longstanding maiden who's lost his way of late; again hung left at Hamilton last Thursday (ended up on the stands' rail) and running at another right-handed course would be a worry.

Defied this mark at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last autumn and he had a close call over C&D in January; only sixth of seven on recent Yarmouth reappearance but that wasn't a bad effort and he ties in with two of today's rivals on that form; not ruled out back up in trip.
