Responded well to the fitting of a visor when winning easily on his Kempton return (1m, Polytrack) in February, but twice disappointing since and still 7lb higher; enough to prove.

Well beaten on turf on his last two starts (soft/good to soft) but both of his wins have been over this C&D, the most recent when visored for the first time in February off a 7lb lower mark; could be more competitive back on this surface.

Up and down on AW since these aids were fitted at the start of 2026, winning at Kempton and back to form after a couple of lesser efforts when runner-up at Lingfield in May (both 1m); no good thing to improve on poor efforts in two previous turf handicaps last year.

Form & Verdict
0-13 in handicaps and usually seen over further than this, but he did run well when fourth of nine over 7f here in March; with a couple in here that like to go forward, he may have the race run to suit and drops into a 0-80 for the first time; hood removed; interesting.

Sole win from 19 starts came in a Salisbury maiden on his second start in 2023; has posted a couple of good efforts for this stable, including when beaten a neck at Lingfield (1m2f, AW; first-time hood) in February; cheekpieces are quickly discarded after a poor run here over 1m3f latest.

Four-time AW winner, most recently at Southwell (1m, AW) in April off 3lb lower than today, but he's been below best in his two starts since cheekpieces went on, including when beating only one rival home at Wolverhampton three weeks ago; that was his first run since May and it may have been needed.
