Three hurdle wins; best effort this season was when just denied over fences at this track in July; not as good since and questions after being pulled-up on last two hurdle starts.

Form & Verdict
Scored twice over hurdles (2m maiden/2m4f handicap) last term; couple of poor runs (hurdles/fences) this season but looks a major contender on these terms, provided he's back on song.
