Three most recent wins have come over C&D, the latest in March; has remained in form, though she bled from the nose when third at Southwell (7f) in April; if showing no ill effects she shouldn't be too far away.

Form & Verdict
Well handicapped on his best form last year and he ran into some trouble in the closing stages when a creditable fifth at Kempton (6f) last time; hard to rule out another good run but he still has something to prove at this trip and is 0-10 on AW.

Disappointing at Southwell (6f) last time but he went close over C&D on his penultimate run and that was after an emphatic front-running success at this track; drawn out wide on this step back up in trip but has possibilities if he can bounce back.

Took him a long time to get off the mark, but has utilised forcing tactics to good effect over C&D this year (1241); 5lb higher than for his latest success, though, and he doesn't have a great draw.

Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last month and he did it in good style; followed up under a 4lb penalty at Brighton (6f, again good to firm) one week later, leading in the final strides, so this 5f could be an issue but he's on a roll again.

C&D winner off 11lb higher last spring whose mark tumbled on the AW over the winter; back in form when second to Dion Baker here last time, in headgear (retained) for the first time in two years, and a 7lb swing entitles him to at least close the gap.
