Easily capitalised on a reduced mark at Chester (7f, good) last month and he's made all over this C&D on both starts since (good to firm); this 5yo is up to a career-high mark but has never been better and could prove tough to catch once more.

Won two in a row at Chester (6f/7f, soft/good) in June and respectable efforts at Chester (7.5f, good) and Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm) since; however, he needs something extra on today's first attempt at 1m if he's to land a competitive handicap such as this.

Off the mark at the seventh attempt with a last-gasp win in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, AW; 18-1) last month; 2lb higher back up in trip, but that was a brave success and he showed plenty of promise on turf last season including when fourth in a valuable sales race at Newmarket; respected.

Not beaten far in a couple of sales races last autumn; not as good in two runs back, getting turned over at odds-on round Redcar before not seeing out 8.6f here early last month, and will need plenty more on this handicap debut.

Gelded prior to winning 7f nursery on good to soft here in October (3lb lower); seen once since, when finishing just behind the Britannia winner at Chester in May (good; raced prominently); some doubts over his current wellbeing but would be considered if at all strong in the market; bypassed Ascot yesterday to wait for this slower surface.
