In fine form on the AW this winter, landing back-to-back 6f handicaps at Wolverhampton and Southwell recently; very lightly raced on turf but still merits serious consideration in his hat-trick bid.

Infrequent winner (2-29); placed six times on AW since narrow win at Wolverhampton (6f; 18-1) in early January; failed to figure from a wide draw at Catterick (7f) latest so needs to bounce back; more appeal than stablemate Kitaab.

Doesn't find winning easy (2-28) but is consistent for the level; third in four of his last five AW starts, including when keeping on behind Mount Ruapehu at Southwell (6f; 14-1) 23 days ago; wide draw isn't ideal for turf return; stablemate of Indy's Angel.
