Enjoying good campaign for new yard, winning at Doncaster (7f, good) last month and short-headed there (7f, good to firm) latest; still mileage in his mark on old form (2yo Listed win here in 2022); didn't run well in 2023 when he wore blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) but lots to like otherwise.

Began 2025 in good form, winning a handicap at Catterick and then finishing a good second at Ripon (both 6f, good); modest form in two runs back with Seb Spencer but his return to action at Doncaster three weeks ago certainly didn't get to the bottom of him, travelling well under restraint and then meeting some trouble as the race was unfolding; capable of better, perhaps markedly so, and the betting should be revealing.
