Related to some useful winners, mainly over shorter, but isn't up to much himself (1m-1m3f); huge price for his handicap debut recently, back from a second round of wind surgery, and ran no sort of race at Ayr yesterday (1m).

Won in a first-time visor (retained since) at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in January and easily made all at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) next time; having gone up 9lb he was beaten 9l when third of 14 at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last time but today's sharper track may help; could make bold bid.
