Form & Verdict
Raised his game for two 1m4f wins this winter and ran respectably in another AW race three weeks ago after 81 days off; a close call on turf on handicap debut (1m6f, good) last November gives plenty of encouragement that he will prove as effective moving away from AW this afternoon; in the mix.

Didn't need to improve to win an uncompetitive C&D novice in the winter but did it impressively and he bettered that at Southwell (off 2lb lower than today) next time, coming from off a steady pace to get up in a busy finish; remains open to further improvement.

Four-time winner who last scored over 1m2f at Windsor (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in July; runner-up over C&D in October, however, and confirmed this trip holds no fears when second again at Nottingham (also good) 18 days ago; player.

Sole win (17 races) was a novice event in 2023; ended 2025 when bang there in two AW handicaps (2m/1m6f) and he wasn't disgraced behind Rock N Roll Pinkie on recent return, but not the percentage call.

No wins since an odds-on debut success for Karl Burke back in 2023 but he's run with credit on plenty of occasions; that wasn't the case at Chester last time, however, and on balance he's opposable despite this career-low mark.
