Has seven AW wins to his name, the latest at Kempton (7f) in May, but he's 0-14 on turf; solid fourth in this race last year, however, and latest sixth of 14 (1m, AW; hampered) suggests he can play a part again.

Seven AW wins, the latest on his seasonal return last month when getting the better of I'm Working On It (7f); midfield on turf latest; returning to AW is in his favour but all his wins have come at 7f (0-10 at 1m+) and he could prove vulnerable to stronger stayers today.
