10st 10lb

J: Tristan Durrell

T: Dan Skelton

Broadly progressive form since November features two wins, including at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) latest start when doing it readily; may continue to improve; one to consider, despite going up a further 10lb and Harry Skelton preferring stablemate Tranquil Sea.

J: Tristan Durrell

T: Dan Skelton

Just one win from ten starts over hurdles but that came at Aintree (3m1f) in December and he bounced back with a creditable second at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) last month; nudged up 2lb but he's still unexposed as a stayer and has possibilities back up in trip.

In good form during the winter including a win at Aintree (3m1f, soft) in December; last month's Ascot effort (3m, good to soft) needs forgiving, but shortlisted if he can bounce back.

Came good over hurdles when upped to 3m at Aintree (soft) in December, his seventh attempt, and bettered that performance when second of 17 at Newbury (3m, good to soft) last month; could still have more to offer; big player.

Skelton runner; opened his rules account in novice handicap at Aintree (3m, soft) last time, building on his good second at Southwell (2m4f); unexposed at this trip and looks the type to improve further; in the mix.
