★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 1 15 Oct Perth

    handy early - took closer order 3 out - sent on 2 out and two lengths up approaching the last - stayed on strongly to win

  • Pos 16 9 Apr Aintree

    Held up in the pack early - unable to improve position through the contest - beaten a long way home

  • Pos 1 23 Mar Kempton

    Set the pace from the start - stretched clear before 2 out - allowed to coast home in front

  • Pos 1 25 Feb Wincanton

    Shared the front early - blundered 8th - in command 4 out and jumped poorly 3 out - pressed on before 2 out - stretched the advantage approaching the last despite another sketchy jump - forged away on the run-in to win with something in hand
