Irish point winner; placed on British debut (bumper) for Fergal O'Brien in late 2020 prior to a brief spell with Tim Vaughan; returned earlier this year for Milton Harris with a fine hurdles debut second at Newbury (2m4f mares' novices'); now tongue-tied on first start for Nigel Twiston-Davies; a golden opportunity.

9yo who has been lightly raced since showing promise in novice hurdles in September 2022 but he returned to form with a close second at Hexham (2m4f, good) recently on his second start back from an absence and a repeat of that performance will put him firmly in the picture.

Runner-up in C&D maiden in September 2022; lightly raced and generally very disappointing since but was not disgraced at Perth last month, after a long absence, and is worth a glance in the betting.

Form & Verdict
Returning from a 952-day absence when a weakening fifth of ten at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) on hurdling debut in July; is entitled to strip fitter on second start for this trainer (also saddles Mactavish) and did show some basic ability in a bumper back in 2019; first attempt at 2m4f.

0-23 over hurdles but went very close on stable debut here (2m4f, soft) in July and also ran well when third (albeit well held) at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in August; drops back in trip with cheekpieces refitted here; no surprise if he comes good for Olly Murphy soon.

0-23 but surely has a race in him, and did record a respectable C&D third (soft) last November; wind surgery since claimed for £6,000 from David Thompson and starts life for Olly Murphy back on a career-low mark.

Soundly beaten in a 2m bumper here (tenth of 12, beaten 32l) in June, and was toiling in rear when ducking sharply right and unseating her rider before the second-last flight on hurdles debut at Perth (2m, good; 125-1).

Dam was a bumper and 3m hurdle winner, so she has the pedigree for hurdling (debut here); in rear throughout and finished a tailed-off last of 12 on sole start (2m bumper, here in June) to date; unlikely.

5 yo Gelding

OR:

Form & Verdict
Placed in a Market Rasen bumper on first start for this trainer (also saddles Bushmill Boy) and a distant second to the prohibitively priced Presentandcounting in a poor 2m4f novices' at Sedgefield (good) a fortnight ago; should at the very least confirm placings with Longstone Cowboy.
