★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 15 11 Mar Cheltenham

    Shared front spot early before giving way after 2nd - still close to pace but scrappy 3 out - pressed for effort and dropped away - faded from 2 out home

  • Pos 2 24 Jan Cheltenham

    Settled midfield early - moving strongly from 2 out to hit the front approaching the last - kept battling to the line - overtaken in the final strides to finish second by a nose

  • Pos 1 6 Dec Aintree

    Settled in second early - moved up to challenge 3rd - shared 5th - a mistake 4 out - in front 2 out - drew right away after the last - won with plenty in hand

  • Pos 1 30 Oct Stratford

    Up with the front group - moved to 2nd approaching 2 out - hit the front before the last - drew right out on the run-in and won without being pressed
