Form & Verdict
In good form in similar races under under Charli Parker in recent months, following a win at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) with runner-up efforts at Catterick (1m4f, good; Austrian Theory third) and Ripon (1m3f, soft; Spirit Catcher fourth); likely to go well again if a three-day turnaround after Ripon doesn't catch up with him.
