★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos PU 16 May Bangor-on-Dee

    Held early spot behind the leader - dropped back a spot 3rd - began to feel pressure and asked for effort into 5th and again 4 out - fumbled badly at the 10th - soon retired from contest

  • Pos PU 11 Mar Cheltenham

    Handy with the pace early - edged in front briefly at the 3rd - unsettled over the 6th and blundered again at the 8th to lose the advantage - sluggish over the next before fading and being pulled up

  • Pos 1 17 Feb Newbury

    Set the pace from the off - opened a ten-length advantage by the 4th - given a nudge approaching the 6th but kept up the pace - pulled further ahead from four out and cruised home alone

  • Pos 5 19 Dec Ascot

    Went straight to the front - overtaken 10th and slipped to third by 13th - pushed along and slid to the rear before 2 out
