J: Robert Dunne

T: Olly Murphy

Fair Flat racer who won easily over hurdles at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in April, his second handicap; well beaten in valuable Fakenham contest since but back in calmer waters and on a more conventional track here; remains of interest, albeit the forecast rain may not be in his favour.

Fair Flat racer who got off the mark over hurdles with easy success at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, his second handicap; hiked up 15lb for that but still can't be opposed with much confidence here.

Form & Verdict
Scored at Fakenham (2m4f, good) in October 2024 off 2lb lower and should be sharper following his first run for 12 months when down the field here in December; hood is reinstated along with first-time tongue-tie; possibilities.

Back in prime form when winning from the front here (2m3f, good) last month and now 2-10 over hurdles; recent 3lb rise certainly doesn't look excessive, and he ought to be right in the thick of things again.

Defied this mark at Fakenham (2m4f, good) in October 2024; only four runs since but he returned after another break with a front-running third at Huntingdon (2m5f) three weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he's not ruled out on this drop back in trip.

Form & Verdict

Returns to the AW after another modest effort over hurdles, but was twice runner-up on Polytrack before that; both wins have come on that surface, but he ran well to finish a close third behind Payment Plan over this C&D in November 2024; each-way claims again.

Ran well in fourth at Chelmsford (2m, Polytrack) in January when back from some time off and built on that to go close there (1m6f) four weeks ago; there's every chance he'll be bang there once more.
