Form & Verdict
Did well on AW for new stable in March/April, winning three times over 6f, and was very close second off today's mark when back on turf here (5f, good) in early May; needs to up his game after three lesser efforts but still enters calculations.

Justified favouritism at Southwell (6f) in April and pipped by Hi Lord over C&D (good) the following week; less competitive at Catterick (7f) and Carlisle (6f) on last two outings and the handicapper might have his measure.

Three 6f wins on AW this year and he only narrowly failed to improve on a very modest turf strike-rate (now 1-35) when just touched off at Hamilton (5f, good) this month; no serious impact at Catterick (7f) since but ran well in headgear in Ireland and cheekpieces are now refitted.

Form & Verdict
Regressive 4yo who has dropped 15lb since the autumn; kept on pretty well from the rear for third of seven at Ripon (6f, good) last week, though, and this stiffer track ought to suit him better.

Winner off a 12lb higher mark at this meeting last year (6f, good); mainly disappointing since, two best runs being on standard to slow surface at Kempton (including over 7f); well treated; others look stronger.

Campaigned over 7f of late, generally leaving the impression he needs a return to 6f; has gained both wins at this distance and he's very attractively treated off current mark; respected.

Campaigned mostly over 6f; inconsistent since sole win; his chance of taking advantage of a reduced mark partly depends on the effects of this return to 7f; record over this trip isn't fully conclusive.

Sole win from 19 starts came over C&D last May but he's falling in the weights without giving any obvious indication he's likely to take advantage; a first-time visor replaces the blinkers worn last time.
