His fourth win of the year when doing it convincingly at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 22 days ago; a 6lb rise might not be beyond him but, although he has run well on ground softer than good, recent soft and heavy-ground assigments were swerved; presumably he could have done without the recent rain.
