Steadily back to form this term, creditable third over C&D most recently; has slipped back to the mark off which his 2yo success was gained; this is a drop in class; therefore interesting on a few counts.

Dual turf winner over 6f; respectable 2l fourth of nine at Southwell (7f, AW) two starts back and soft ground is a possible excuse for his lesser effort at Salisbury; each-way chance back on the AW.

3yo who has seen plenty of action but he's unexposed on AW; won at Doncaster and Redcar this summer and he's finished runner-up on Polytrack and turf in last two starts; his latest run was just three days ago but that was a bold bid in a Class 4 event (6f, good) and he's respected on this drop back in grade.
