Form & Verdict

Emphatic winner at Yarmouth (11.5f classified; 10-11 favourite) last week; fine on the AW during his Irish days, and this represents just his fourth start for Michael Bell; 4lb penalty to deal with but likely to go close if in the same form.

Four course wins, all over 9.5f, and not since December 2022; dropping swiftly down the weights, faring a bit better when fifth at Newcastle (1m2f) last month; stamina reserves are questionable at 1m4f; safer options elsewhere.
