Form & Verdict
Four-time Flat winner, who won over hurdles at Fontwell (2m5f, good) last summer and he held a narrow lead at Southwell last month (2m4f, good) when he fell at the last; now returns to the scene of his last Flat win and he's in the mix off what looks a workable mark.

Showed career-best form when scoring by 9l here (2mf, good) in June, his second hurdle win; went up 8lb for that and returned with a low-key Flat run this month but will be fine over today's longer trip; respected.

Has six wins on the Flat; sole success in this sphere came at this track (2m5f, good) in August 2024; still 6lb above his winning mark but was still in contention when brought down at the last flight over C&D (good) in April; holds place claims.

Low-mileage 5yo who has won on Tapeta in three of his last four starts including a comfortable success over C&D 16 days ago; up another 4lb but he's open to more progress and is a major player again in his bid to make it 4-9 on AW.

Capable on her day as she showed when beaten a neck (clear of the third) at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) on her penultimate start; not the most consistent, though, and has run poorly in both starts over C&D; apprentice-ridden for last 11 starts but Dylan Hogan on board today.
