Raced on AW; improved for a switch to handicaps in the spring, edging out subsequent three-time winner Cock And Bull at Wolverhampton (1m4f) before a runaway win at Lingfield; may have found third outing in quick succession too much when beaten at odds on at Southwell in April and better than than the result (caught too far back) on his recent return from a break at Chelmsford (extended 1m5f); no reason on breeding why he won't prove as effective on turf; bold show on the cards if he stays this new trip.
