Useful at around 1m4f on the Flat at his best but ran as though something was amiss on both outings in the spring and it takes a leap of faith to support him on this hurdling debut; blinkers the headgear of choice today.

He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f) with a close third in between; they were all on AW in March/April under Olivia Tubb and he's not raced since, with turf runs in the last two years hinting that he's not quite so good in this sphere; also, the last time he raced on firmer than good was 2022.

Acts on good to soft but soft would be a worry; tricky to settle and is held up in rear; won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f; 10lb higher today) last October and he's looked just as good on most starts since, without winning but late traffic woes seemingly prevented him from going close last time; without his usual jockey Billy Loughnane today but he was a close second last term under Clifford Lee; probably involved if he can get the breaks.
