He was second to a last-time-out winner at Ayr (3m, good to soft); thereabouts

Third at Lingfield last time and the two ahead of him have both run well since

Rallying second at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) a month ago but he's now 0-24; others are safer

In this new headgear combination when pushing an in-form rival close at Wetherby

Hasn't looked a natural in either chase run and now goes in cheekpieces

2l winner at Market Rasen and can put a line through last run there (too bad to be true)
