7f turf winner for Michael Bell; 6f too sharp on stable debut in September but stepped up on that when getting up late to beat an in-form opponent at Chelmsford on Thursday; 6lb penalty asks a stiffer question.

Usually seen over further when trained by Michael Bell, winning a 7f handicap at Doncaster in June off 7lb lower; hit and miss since and usual visor left off by new trainer (same owners); new tongue-tie and drop in trip could give him a lift.

Won final start (7f) for the Gosdens as 2yo; has mostly found sprint handicaps hard work this year but he made a promising start for this yard at Chester in September and had soft ground and a higher grade to contend with since; not ruled out in first-time hood (has worn cheekpieces).
