1m3f Flat winner in blinkers who ran well when second of five on last Sunday's hurdle debut at Exeter (2m, good to soft); sets a good standard for the rest to aim at and he holds solid claims in first-time cheekpieces.

A dual hurdle winner for Milton Harris; well beaten on the Flat on first two starts for this stable in June and only made a satisfactory start to his chasing career when a well-held third at Plumpton (2m1f, good; second has won since) last month; has a fitness edge over some and not ruled out with that experience behind him, off 5lb lower.

Unraced beyond 1m4f on Flat but has scored over 2m and 2m4f as a hurdler; his significant Flat form was in 2022 and he was tailed off on recent return to Flat for new yard after eight months off; others have more pressing claims.

Form & Verdict
Failed to progress on the Flat and was well beaten in midfield in the November Handicap (1m4f, heavy) on his stable debut three weeks ago; however, he achieved a useful RPR of 88 when mid-division at Goodwood in July on his final run for Richard Hughes and is entitled to respect on hurdle debut.

Fair form over hurdles last season, running okay when fourth on handicap debut at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) in March; subsequent Flat efforts nothing to get excited about but he arrrives fit for this hurdle reappearance and may have more to give in this sphere.

Three Flat wins since July (1m2f-1m4f, including on good to soft) and he posted an RPR of 77 when scoring at Wolverhampton latest; this progressive sort could play a leading role if taking to hurdles at the first attempt.
