Form & Verdict
0-20 but he was beaten a neck at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) this month and a head at Ayr (1m5f, good) six days ago; that wasn't a match for last summer's form but he should be competitive in this field as well and looks well worth this first go at 2m; acts on good to soft, well beaten on soft; cheekpieces (tried twice lat August) return.

Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and change of headgear when clearcut winner at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time blinkers) nine days ago; 6lb higher here and too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but the return to turf won't be a problem.

Two wins last season, the latter gained by 10l here (1m6f, soft; also suited by much quicker ground) in October; not in same form on either outing since returned to the Flat in March (1m4f/2m; cheekpieces refitted last time) but still considered.

Form & Verdict
Beaten favourite (Flat/hurdles) in first three races for James Owen, before two runs this month which were moderate, notwithstanding the early interference he suffered last Sunday; back down in class but unconvincing at present, including at this trip.

Won his only start here, albeit 2021; 9yo now and it's hard to ignore that latest Flat win was in 2022, but he did score over hurdles this February (3m1f, soft; first win for two years) and some Flat ability remains too.

Sole win (21 races) came by a nose in June 2023; changed yards, missed 2024 and second of seven at Catterick (2m, good to firm) 11 days ago was his first worthwhile form since, but ground worse than good could be a problem.
