Not won for a while but plenty of creditable efforts in similar events here last season. Good chance off a tempting mark if ready to roll.

Won on debut for Charlie Appleby in December 2023 and best effort after at Kempton. Significantly down in trip back from a long absence for a new trainer and probably best watched.
