Won a couple of 7f handicaps at Southwell in February; this mark in range judged on his second at Southwell in March but his last three runs have been poor and it is easy to have reservations at present.

He's won over 7f but his two July course wins came over 6f; well handicapped now and although his form seems to have slacked off since he went close over this C&D in June this is his first 7f run since; not ruled out.

Can miss the break and has a patchy profile; bounced back with a close second over C&D (good to firm) last month but she hung left when fourth of six here (7f, good to firm) last time; hood is now added on this step back up in trip but she comes with risks attached.
