Off the mark on turf at the 20th attempt when accounting for three rivals at Bath (1m, firm) last month; below par when fifth of 13 at Salisbury (1m, good) 13 days ago; win record is offputting.

Placed three consecutive times at Bath before justifying favouritism in four-runner race there (1m, firm) 19 days ago; nudged up only 2lb for that but this race is much deeper; others appeal more.

20-1 for her stable debut here two weeks ago but she kept on well to see off nine rivals (1m, firm); still has plenty of handicapping scope and she could be the answer.

Landed her first win on turf at Bath (1m, firm) in May on her stable debut; ran well in two runs back there since but looks vulnerable off 3lb higher.

Form & Verdict
For one who has been a model of consistency for much of his career it is slightly disconcerting that he has been well below form in three of his last four starts; the lesser runs have been in Class 5 events and his standout recent effort came when faced with Class 6 opposition, missing out by just a head at Lingfield in February (1m2f, AW); has run well over C&D in the past and a revival could be forthcoming back down in grade.

Yet to score this year but has run well a few times, latest when third of five at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago; should be thereabouts but would prefer some give in the ground.

Wildly inconsistent this year; better from the front in a small field last time and the return to a switchback track, back up in trip, looks in his favour (fair record on the AW here); whether he reproduces the effort is the question.

Form & Verdict
Course winner (1m2f, good to soft) last September and he has made good progress since, adding two AW successes (9.4f/7f) to his tally; close third over C&D last month (good ground) but not in the same form at Kempton three weeks ago; can't ignore if as effective on today's faster ground.
