Made steady progress switched to handicaps last autumn, winning over 7f at Ascot (good to soft) and 1m at Newcastle (AW); that makes his reappearance effort in the Doncaster Spring Mile disappointing but last year's exploits show he's better than that.

Form & Verdict
This low-mileage 4yo found the line coming a few strides too soon when odds-on favourite for his 7f Lingfield (AW) reappearance ten days ago; that points to this return to 1m suiting one who is back out a couple of days before a 3lb rise for Lingfield takes effect; his turf wins last year came on good to firm and good; should go well.
