Weakened late on (shaped better than bare result) in the 3m Grade 1 novice hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival; won with plenty to spare at Newbury (soft) the time before, taking 2m4f record under rules to 311, and may have more to offer over this distance; interesting handicap debutant.

J: David Bass

T: Charlie Longsdon

This 6yo is a big lad with a bright future ahead of him; it's unlikely that Windsor played to his strengths when well behind Moneygarrow and he then stayed on much the best in a Newbury novice last month (extended 2m4f, soft); however, that latest race had no depth and the odds-on favourite wasn't on his game; this is a huge hike in class.

Bumper winner; made all at Leicester (2m4f, soft) and didn't appear to get home over 3m in a useful novice at Windsor; again has the penalty but this looks more suitable; holds the 2m5f/3m novice entries at Cheltenham.

Third at Market Rasen (extended 2m2f, good to soft) on Boxing Day has been the only bright spot in his four races this autumn/winter; now has a 2lb lower mark and goes beyond an extended 2m4f for the first time.

Pulled up on two of last three runs, so isn't a reliable proposition; however, in between he kept on for a good third at Market Rasen (extended 2m2f, good to soft) and he is of interest on that form, if on a going day.
