Some good form over hurdles, including a win at Hexham (2m, good) last month; shaped when fifth in this code at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in May as though he could do with a longer trip, and he gets it today; interesting.

Low-mileage 5yo who made it 3-6 in 1m4f handicaps when justifying favouritism at Pontefract (1m4f, good) two weeks ago; up 4lb but that was a comfortable success and he's open to more progress at this trip; key player.

Not at his best in a 0-70 at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago, but likely to do better especially if the ground continues to dry out, with his two wins last year (including one over C&D) coming on good to firm; big player down in grade.

Modest form in three qualifying runs and took a step backwards, despite being fairly prominent in the market, when sixth of seven at Musselburgh (1m, good; looked awkward) on his handicap debut in August; pedigree suggests this step up in trip should suit but work to do on AW debut.
