Very well handicapped on old hurdling form but, following a long absence, his belated switch to fences has not gone well with form figures of P55 (from 2m3f to 3m).

J: Miss Thomasina Eyston

T: Brian Eckley

Very well handicapped on old hurdling form; ultimately well beaten in both chases since returning from mammoth absence in September but travelled well for a long way here (3m, good) on latter occasion and today's trip-and-ground combination may suit him better; worth a second look.

T: Brian Eckley

Course winner over hurdles in 2021; pulled up when 40-1 for last month's chasing debut at Stratford (race won by Radharc Na Slaine) but that was his first outing for 900 days and he might come on for the run.

Just 1-15 over hurdles and absent since below-par run in March 2023; given a chance by the handicapper in the meantime but could be considered only if lively in the betting before this chasing debut.

J: Ellis Collier

T: Brian Eckley

Travelled well to a point on last month's seasonal debut at Ffos Las (2m4f, good to soft) and arguably ran better than finishing position suggests when fifth over that C&D (good; just behind Karakoram) 18 days ago; also suited by 2m; can make his presence felt.
