Won comfortably off reduced mark at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in March and has also performed well on both outings since, more recently when fourth at Sandown (2m4f, good) nine days ago; ran poorly on only previous visit to Fakenham but still enters calculations.

Good second in valuable Newbury bumper two years ago; raced freely before a solid third on his handicap debut at Aintree (2m1f, good to soft) in November and that trait was again in evidence when fifth of ten at Huntingdon (2m, soft) the following month; off since and he could do with settling down stepping up in trip but he's unexposed in this sphere.

Two hurdle wins last June and latest was over C&D (good); no joy in just three runs since but he was in lead when he ran out and crashed through the rails before the second-last at Wincanton (3m, good) last month; has possibilities if he can maintain his focus this time and he's well handicapped on his best form.
