3-13 on the Flat for George Boughey, the latest win gained in October (2m, AW; RPR 78), but struggled (albeit on soft ground) when making stable/hurdle debut against own age group last month.

His autumn progress on the Flat for George Boughey came at an ordinary level but he won three times (1m4f/2m) and there's every chance he'll make a hurdler; not ruled out on first run since changing hands for 20,000gns.

After showing promise he became disappointing during his short Flat career, and he was beaten 19l when fourth of six on his recent hurdle debut at Fakenham (2m, good); however, that was his first run since last November and it's possible he'll get closer to the target today.

Hasn't progressed from a good 2yo effort and he holds weak claims on Flat/hurdles form for current yard; however, may be capable of a resurgent display, with this contest being far from strong.

Form & Verdict
Three-time Flat winner who has also shown promise over hurdles; well beaten in this code last May and bought out of Denis Hogan's yard for £17,000 later that month; absent since but he's one of the likelier winners if at the top of his game on this comeback and stable debut; watch the betting.
