Below par on AW last autumn on final two runs for Stuart Williams; however, he twice went close on the other Newmarket course (6f, good to firm) last August and he'll be bang there if rediscovering that form on his stable and seasonal debut, for which he wears a tongue-tie; remains in same ownership.

This C&D brought out the best in him last season with two close seconds in August (both on good to firm); returned to form with close fourth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month on his second start of the season and he could play a leading role back here.

Big run on stable/handicap debut (formerly trained by Denis Quinn) at Wolverhampton last week (6f) when returning from over 15 months off; will take plenty of beating off the same mark if this doesn't come too soon; Hector Crouch is 10-46 (+11.32) for the yard in the last five years.

Made a proper splash when going in at 50-1 on her reappearance in C&D maiden (good; third start) in April but contrasting fortunes when beaten 18l on her handicap debut at Newmarket 12 days ago; that was too bad to be true but does lower expectations somewhat.
