Has taken advantage of a sliding mark, having missed the best part of a year, since switched to Tapeta back in cheekpieces; split two subsequent winners over 8.6f here a month ago and holds decent claims upped 3lb (likely to be dropped in from stall 12).

Third in this last year off a 2lb higher mark before going on to win twice over 8.6f here; closely matched with Volto Di Medusa on revised terms, having finished behind him a month ago, and has a fair draw for one happiest on the sharp end.

Nothing like as good as he was and has turned in a string of poor efforts this year; late in the day to be making his Tapeta debut and is hard to recommend.

Currently 3-3 on Tapeta following a hat-trick in the spring (two of the wins coming here); pulled hard on his return from a break, when not seeing out 1m2f on heavy ground, recently and should fare better under Eireann Cagney.

Won off 1lb higher for regular partner Brodie Hampson in June (turf) but has struggled since; boasts a fair record round here, albeit was comfortably held from the front in this race last year; needs more.
