Took big step back in right direction when fifth at Aintree (3m1f, good to soft) last month, in race he won the previous two seasons; still on a workable mark and has a fighting chance here if first-time cheekpieces have any positive effect.

Has failed to show his form in both outings this term but a revival looks highly likely back at Aintree on return from four-month break; 2-2 over fences at this venue, namely wins in this race for the last two years (good/good to soft); had a similar prep when winning by 5l off just 1lb lower 12 months ago; commands respect in the hat-trick attempt.

Well beaten at Newcastle a fortnight ago but may have needed that comeback run; won in good style at Aintree (3m1f, good) in April and on that evidence this 3lb higher mark shouldn't be beyond him; versatile ground-wise.

Returned to form to win at Aintree in April (3m1f, good; landed same contest in 2023) and had 5l in hand in that competitive race, so a 4lb rise isn't harsh; four visits to Newcastle have yielded three wins (good to soft-heavy) and he could play another leading role on his reappearance.
