Form & Verdict
Began this year with three respectable 7f AW runs in blinkers (missing today) and can also be effective over 1m2f on turf but has fitness to prove after 145-day break and his last win came in summer 2024.

Only 3-31 but won comfortably over C&D (good) earlier this month with a first-time eyeshield joining reapplied blinkers and that was from the same stall as today; back up 7lb but has coped with this mark in the past.

Both wins at around 1m when trained by Ed Bethell; his losing run is mounting up and a first-time eye-shield is now applied along with returning blinkers; now on a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage.
