Resurgent 8yo who has rattled off a hat-trick on AW this spring including a clearcut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; this is tougher off 9lb higher but he remains feasibly treated on his old form and is a five-time winner on turf; key player.

Thriving on AW this winter, successful for the fourth time when a snug winner at Southwell last week; his two latest defeats have come when upped to Class 5, however, and this track presents a different test; feasible mark (just 2lb higher than last week) if the tighter track holds no terrors.
