Strike-rate is only 1-16 but he gained the win at Ayr and returns here off an attractive mark (peak one was 15lb higher); ran encouragingly at Thirsk (1m, good; 1l second) most recently, proving suited by the switch back to turf from AW.

Just did enough to open account at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March, his 17th start, and also ran well when third behind The Gay Blade over C&D (good) last month, having made a big forward move in the early stages; his tendency to race too freely remains a worry but he can make his presence felt.
