Form & Verdict

German Flat winner who, having had wind surgery, left his first three hurdle runs well behind when winning in first-time tongue-tie (retained) on handicap debut at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) last Monday; did it easily and he'll be tough to beat under a 7lb penalty if repeating that latest form.
