Off the mark in an apprentice race at Haydock a week ago and can race off 1lb lower

Three wins this year; best form on fast ground, but does handle soft; each-way shout

1-15; well held in both starts since returning in May; enough to prove

Back off last winning mark and acts on any ground; worth a second look with blinkers on
