Second past the post in a division of this last year (later awarded the race); below his best on his first two starts this year but got back to winning ways at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to soft) 12 days ago after a gelding operation; likely player even with 5lb penalty, particularly if the ground is softer than good.

Both wins have been over 1m2f on good to soft, with the most recent coming at Doncaster in September after the first past the post was disqualified for a banned substance; well beaten at Newbury on his return but this is a drop in grade.

Went close off today's mark over C&D (good; first-time cheekpieces) last August and again at Windsor (1m4f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) a few days later but we haven't seen him since a lesser run last September and he goes without headgear today.

Made all for clearcut success on handicap debut here (9.4f) in January and came second on both subsequent AW starts (9.4f/1m4f); absent since lesser effort on turf two months ago and her tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but this return to Tapeta is sure to suit and she remains unexposed over the trip.
