0-7 over hurdles but hasn't been with current stable long and was clear second to a big improver at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; today's 4lb higher mark is manageable if he jumps soundly on this chasing debut.

Made favourite for stable debut at Warwick (2m, good) in May but found things happening too quickly and was a never-dangerous fourth; moves back up in trip here, though, and may yet find some form for Ben Pauling.

10st 6lb

J: Brendan Powell

T: David Bridgwater

Winning chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good) in May but progress stalled when beaten 53l at Market Rasen in July; shaped well when runner-up back over hurdles here (2m1f, good to firm) 11 days ago and resumes over fences in a first-time visor; has more to offer in this sphere.

J: Brendan Powell

T: David Bridgwater

Made a bright start to his chasing career when scoring at Fakenham (2m, good) in May and bettered that when third off 5lb higher at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July; reverts to hurdles after a disappointing run at Market Rasen last time but not out of this if bouncing back.

10st 9lb

J: Shane Quinlan

T: Andrew J Martin

Capable when on song, as shown by winning at Fakenham (2m, good; from 6lb higher) in April 2024; always behind when beaten 40l at Stratford five weeks ago returning from mammoth 793-day absence and wind surgery.

Scored off 4lb higher at Fakenham (2m, good) in April 2024 but absent since pulled up twice the following June; had wind op in June and is fitted with first-time hood/tongue-tie for this reappearance; others have much less to prove.

0-22 under all codes; ended last season with some respectable chase runs, most recently when keeping on past Forcetoreckonwith to take third at Warwick (2m, good), but needs to find something extra on this first start for five months.

Disputing the lead before penultimate-fence fall at Sedgefield (2m, good) this month and subsequently belied 50-1 odds when third off his basement Flat mark but his only from 35 starts was gained over hurdles in 2023, and his overall profile remains unconvincing.

Sole win was in 2023; overall record is now 1-34 and he has a lot to prove back on the Flat but he was bang there when falling two out over fences at Sedgefield on Wednesday.
