121 this season; won by a head from Dream Harder at Ascot; up 4lb but he's a rising force

Progressive in handicaps; 1m2f Sandown win; up 7lb but shapes as if worth a go at 1m4f

2-2 since hooded over Chester's 10.3f; new trip and races a bit too freely for comfort

Has largely held his form in defeat and first attempt beyond 10.3f has to be worth a go
