It took a drop into classified company for him to return to winning ways in February (6f, AW; blinkered first time; final run for John Butler); gained a second Newcastle win of the year last month but he raced far too freely back there on Monday; up in class today and likely vulnerable.

Prominent racer; close second at Newcastle (6f) last month but he failed to back it up at Southwell three weeks ago; all his best efforts have come on a straight course so perhaps can be given the benefit of the doubt for last time; one of two runners for the stable; not discounted.

Sprung a surprise in a soft-ground 6f maiden at Windsor last September; 50-1 and well beaten in two handicaps since (1m and 7f, both Polytrack); return to 6f and the addition of cheekpieces may turn things around but it is still easy to have reservations.
