The forecast rain will be less of a bother to him than many; however, the latest of two narrow turf wins over 6f, at Chester in August, took him to a career-high mark which proved a tough pill to swallow in the Portland at Doncaster last week; looks up against it from 2lb higher this time.

Sprang a 40-1 surprise on his stable debut at York (5f, good) in May and he showed better form in defeat on his next two starts (both at York; 5f and 6f on good ground); messed about at the start when disappointing at York seven weeks ago; still of major interest from a handicapping perspective judged on his run on June 13 and he's unexposed at 6f; contender.

Four wins this year include two over C&D (soft/good to firm), which makes him 2-2 here; normally reliable sort who can be excused his sixth at Windsor last time, when he was one of two that pursued a fruitless exploration of the far rail; could well bounce back.
