He's not as good as he was but he exploited a reduced mark at Epsom (7f, good) 11 days ago; may be able to build on that victory and this course winner is capable of another big run under a 5lb penalty. |

Off the mark at the 13th attempt at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last October and scored over C&D (good to soft) on reappearance last Thursday; always in the first two in the latter and went nearly 5l clear in the closing stages, so he's well treated (due to go up another 4lb) under his 5lb penalty. |

Often leads; well handicapped on some of last year's form and, with a hood refitted for the first time since last April, he made the most of it when always prominent to win six-runner race at Lingfield (7f, good) 16 days ago; first once and second twice from his three runs here last summer, so he's one to take seriously back up 2lb.

A bit in-and-out this year, but he only went down by a short head on the Polytrack here (1m; first-time cheekpieces) seven days ago; 3lb drop since then puts him back on his last winning mark and fast ground is very much in his favour; respected. |
