Came good at ninth attempt, drawing 13l clear to score over C&D (good) last month; hiked up 10lb for that and too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but still an obvious one to consider.

1-16 over hurdles, having gained a hard-fought course win (2m6f, good) in May; evidently well suited by this track but will need to find hidden reserves to overcome a 4lb higher mark on this chasing debut.
