Has taken well to fences and completed a three-timer at Catterick in January; resumed winning ways at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month and this front-runner may prove hard to peg back.

T: Donald McCain

Beaten 32l on his chase debut in October but subsequent wind surgery sent him on a roll, a win over C&D (good to soft) in December triggering a hat-trick; nothing wrong with his third of six at Sedgefield last time and he may still be capable of better.

Form & Verdict
Seemingly aided by new tongue-tie when winning twice at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft/soft) during the winter, and was not discredited when second to revitalised subsequent winner at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) last month; sometimes races a bit too freely but should be fine on this left-handed track; respected.

Always the risk his reluctance to settle will temper his late effort, as it did when over 1l behind A Great Excuse at Lingfield in December; 2-2 at Huntingdon since, however, deriving the benefit of the tongue tie once again when making most there latest (soft); 5lb rise appears pretty fair.

Last year wasn't all plain sailing but he delivered on previous chasing promise when scoring over C&D (good to soft; first-time tongue-tie) just before Christmas and should be fine on the slower ground today; respected.

Won small-field Irish point on debut in October 2024 (good ground) and also showed promise in two of his three novice/maiden hurdle runs last autumn; makes chase/handicap debut after a four-month break but sports new tongue-tie/cheekpieces and remains unexposed; market helpful.

Point winner; didn't hang about over hurdles and was running well when clouting two out on handicap/chase debut at Chepstow, where he was made favourite in this new headgear combination; has to be of interest.
