He was very smart on the Flat when in his prime but left Karl Burke under a cloud and has yet to get anything going for current yard, on the Flat and in two runs over hurdles; looks on a slippery slope.

J: Sean Quinlan

T: Jennie Candlish

Smart on the Flat at his best but signed off for Karl Burke with two disappointing runs in the autumn and was rather hesitant at some of the flights when disappointing favourite on last month's stable/hurdle debut; subsequently tailed off in major Flat handicap; may yet get his act together over hurdles but he is very tricky to weigh up at the moment.

Won a maiden bumper here (soft) when with Rebecca Menzies, whom he has left since being a distant third at Wetherby in January (2m, soft); won a fast-ground point, so forecast conditions may help and he looks fairly treated on his handicap/stable debut; needs a market check.
