Won at Windsor (1m, good to firm) and York (7f, good) in May and he went close in his hat-trick bid at Epsom the following month; still looks feasibly treated on that form but he's gone off the boil in last two runs and needs to rediscover his spark.

He has taken it up a notch this season, winning at Windsor (1m, good to firm; made most) in May and beating 21 others under a penalty at York (7f, good) eight days later; fine second to Colombier at Epsom next time and his latest fifth in valuable Curragh handicap (1m) was respectable; has to be of interest again.
