Verdict

HAPPY improved his form when second at Beverley on reappearance and, while a bit underwhelming (raced too freely) at York next time, he's fancied to get his head in front now dropped in trip and grade taking on his elders for the first time. Where's Jeff and Regal Mirage both arrive in good order, but they're much more exposed than the selection.
