Often leaves the impression he's capable of better when the cards pan out for him and he lurks on a dangerous mark at present; not beaten far at Brighton three weeks ago (6f, good); stiff 5f should suit and he's interesting with Rossa Ryan booked.

None too consistent but he was the easy winner of a C&D handicap last summer and also added a 6f handicap at Kempton to his tally in March (off today's mark); suspect this may be one of his good days.

Absent since getting off the mark with a last-gasp success at Leicester (6f, soft) 401 days ago; likely this mark is still in range but the absence, allied to the widest stall, is enough to look elsewhere.
