Close up behind Cheeky Laddie when fourth in a stakes race posting a respectable effort three weeks ago; if he can build on his latest effort then has to be taken seriously.

Proven that he knows how to get his head in front (seeking a sixth career win); was a shade disappointing when seventh (10-11) five months ago; returns from a layoff; has a good draw so should not be far away.
