On a near two-year losing spell but has plenty of form at Newcastle, so this race's move away from Doncaster may suit him better than some of these rivals; can't rule out a good run.

9st 7lb |
Big-race wins in the 1m4f November Handicap last year and the 2m Northumberland Plate this June, both on the Newcastle AW; made a creditable attempt to break his turf duck in the Ebor at York two weeks ago but none of his form, AW or turf, suggests he's a match for the best of these rivals. |

Big-race wins in the 1m4f November Handicap last year and the 2m Northumberland Plate eight weeks ago, both on the Newcastle AW; travelled so smoothly through the latter race and asserted well, but he's 8lb higher today and although he's had some minor honours on turf, he now bids for his first turf win at the tenth attempt. |

29th Jun 2024 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |

Landed the rescheduled November Handicap over 1m4f here (off 4lb lower) in 2023 and ran well to make the frame over 1m4f/2m in three of his five AW starts this year; player on that but he has a modest strike-rate. |

Won at Chester in May and ran creditably on four occasions in summer; last few efforts have been less good and he looks more exposed than the other 3yos in this field; chance depends on how well he takes to AW.

10th Aug 2024 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |

Beaten a head over 1m4f at this meeting last year; last 15 races have gone by without a win and this season he's been near his best form only once, three starts back; stays 1m6f/14.5f (usually seen over shorter) and now tries 2m for the first time; 5lb lower than on reappearance. |

Flopped on penultimate outing but otherwise progressive for current stable and that defeat is flanked by turf wins over 1m4f/1m2f, latest at Leicester; dam's side suggests he'll relish this step back up in distance; could well improve further; shortlisted on AW debut.

Unexposed 6yo who ran well when third behind Onesmoothoperator in the November Handicap over C&D, especially as he made his effort away from the first two; finished fourth of 13 in a hot handicap over 1m2f here on New Year's Day and form of that race is working out spectacularly well; major player from same mark. |

His only handicap wins were this race in 2022 (soft) and 2023 (heavy); the latter was by a nose but he's just 1lb higher today and back down to 1m2f for the first time since, having run respectably this term; the hat-trick in this race demands a bit more than that but he's clearly one to note. |

Not proven on worse than good to soft; surged to new heights over 2m on AW in March/April but his first crack at Group-race honours couldn't have been a much tougher assignment when he tailed off at 100-1 in the 2m4f Gold Cup at Royal Ascot; AW form needs to be transferred to turf. |

Dropped back to 1m2f when a comfortable winner from the front on heavy going at Newmarket last November off 2lb lower than today; plenty of disappointments in his record and he has run only twice this term, with a step back in the right direction last time; something of an enigma, but a well-handicapped one judged on that November win. |
