Form & Verdict
Won at Thirsk (6f, good) in April on second stable start and second of 20 at York (6f, good) in May, before respectable fifth of 14 at Thirsk (6f, good); uncharacteristically below par at York three weeks ago but not written off in view of his previous exploits.

J: Mark Winn

Twice went close last month at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) then ran pretty well when seventh of 21 at York (6f, good to firm) most recently; this is less competitive than last time and he could be thereabouts.
