Right back to form of late, winning over C&D in February and March; travelled strongly and just did enough for the second of those successes, and a 2lb rise may well not prevent the hat-trick.

Four of his five AW wins have been at this track and the other at Wolverhampton; only 1lb higher than for June's Wetherby win but hasn't been at best on his last two starts; better is needed back on the AW but he's capable.

A repeat of the form of either May's Doncaster 7f win (good to soft) or last September's second over today's C&D (soft) would see him go close; over four years now since his sole win on fast turf, however.

Finished strongly to resume winning ways over C&D (good to soft; from 2lb lower) in May; hasn't operated at the same level since, but overall strike rate (10-80) is admirable for the level; forecast ground perhaps faster than ideal.
