Dual bumper winner; lacked the gears to mix it with top 2m novices earlier in the season but, raised in distance, he wasn't overly troubled to win minor races at Taunton (2m3f, good to soft) and Ffos Las (2m4f, heavy); mixed messages on pedigree as to whether this far will be a help or a hindrance, but can't be dismissed.

One of his two bumper wins was here; disappointed in his second run over hurdles, but chased home the smart Mydaddypaddy in the first and readily justified favouritism last month at Taunton (2m3f, good to soft); a scopey individual with more to offer.

Yet to score in eight attempts over hurdles but she's been placed five times, in Ireland and for David Pipe, and her third of 13 at Taunton (2m3f, good to soft) was a solid effort in January; hasn't quite matched that in two subsequent starts but didn't stay 3m last time and now drops back down in trip in a modest event; tongue-tie added and she holds obvious claims.
