Suited by soft, as for 1m win here and good 3rd over 1m2f in May; this trip looks ideal

Found the most over 1m at Epsom (soft) latest; this trip suits, too; still well treated

Both wins on soft; had a quiet year but down weights and ran well on Saturday; new trip

All 7 wins over 1m at Brighton; acts here but career-high mark gives him something to find

1m winner here in June; new trip and heavy ground may be more of a hindrance than a help
