He's not bred to be a staying chaser and he was soundly beaten at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) last time, but his staying-on second of five here (2m2f, good) in November suggests he's not a forlorn hope now up in trip and back on good ground; wears a first-time visor.

Ex-American Flat winner (8.5f, firm); enjoyed the good ground when winning a Stratford novice hurdle and good to soft conditions perhaps too slow for him when an 11l sixth on his switch to fences at Kelso (2m1f handicap); this quicker track and drier ground can trigger improvement on that form.

Regressive 10yo who ended 2023 with two disappointing chase runs for Ewan Whillans; might have been refreshed by combination of subsequent 172-day break and change of scenery, though, and market support will bring him into the equation; 2lb wrong; cheekpieces/tongue-tie removed.
