J: Ned Fox

T: Matt Sheppard

Kept on well to score over C&D (good) in April, his ninth start over hurdles; still unexposed over this sort of trip but was a shade disappointing when well-held third at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month and probably won't be favoured by any rain.

Underwhelming at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) last time but encouraging signs previously, winning on handicap debut at Catterick (1m7f, good) then sixth of 17 at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft) when fading late on; this sharp 2m4f could be a good fit and he's not ruled out.
