Slower-run race appeared more the issue than either the 5lb higher mark or waning of the blinkers' effectiveness when falling over 5l short of following up last month's 33-1 1m2f win back here latest (both good); fair chance there'll be pace to aim at again this time; remains of interest.

Won back-to-back handicaps on the AW in January/February (1m4f/1m5f), latest off 1lb higher; tends to race prominently so can be forgiven latest effort when failing to get involved from out the back (missed the break and hampered early) and best judged on his close third over C&D in June on penultimate start; can't be ruled out.
