Dual hurdle winner (once here); seemingly back in good nick when runner-up at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in June, his second run after a break, but disappointed there last month and needs a boost from the first-time cheekpieces today; probably best suited by good/good to soft ground.

Made the frame in three maidens this summer (2m-2m4f, good; also acts on soft) and looked set to do so again before last-flight fall at Worcester three weeks ago (first-time blinkers); probably on a workable mark for this handicap return and can make his presence felt again.
