Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 10 in handicap at Haydock (8f, good to firm, 11/4) on return to action 55 days ago, running on. Can make presence felt from the same mark.

Latest win at Wetherby in June. Shaped as though still in good form when fourth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good) 25 days ago, left with too much to do. Strong traveller needs considering.

Blinkered for first time, fifth of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy, 16/1) 31 days ago. Headgear removed and he doesn't look an easy ride.

Snapped a lengthy losing sequence at Nottingham in June. Solid placed efforts all 3 outings since, third of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm, 10/3) 14 days ago. Merits consideration.

Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good, 7/2) 9 days ago, though he did look to be worried out of it.

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, soft) 22 days ago. Hopes rest on significant step back up in trip sparking him back to life.

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap (8/1) at Pontefract (8f, good) 9 days ago. More severe headgear looks a good move.

50/1 and tongue strap on for first time, twelfth of 17 in handicap at York (7f, good) 21 days ago, finding little. Needs to cast the run aside.

Career best when completing hat-trick in 7-runner handicap (evens) at Ripon (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago, readily. Bit below par at Beverley on Thursday, but highly respected again off just 1 lb higher than Ripon.
