Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again.
Comment
Second at 6f on AW on debut; has shown decent form on turf; could go well but vulnerable
