Consistent enough at a similarly low level all year, winning twice, and there are no concerns regarding track, trip or ground; that's enough to see him shortlisted in a weak affair.

Regressive gelding who become inconsistent; punctuated a string of ordinary efforts with a near-miss in a small field over C&D in June (first-time blinkers) but well held the next twice before fading into a modest third over 1m4f here yesterday.

Showed no improvement switched to handicap level last time, finishing midfield, and still has RPRs in the 30s; chance depends on the effects of first-time headgear.
