J: Ciaran Gethings

T: Stuart Edmunds

Won a low-grade AW handicap in April and minor honours over C&D for new yard in his two starts switched to hurdling recently; needs to find extra and the tongue-tie he wore on last six Flat starts is restored; he also wore cheekpieces in those Flat runs but that remains absent.

Just 1-28 and a step backwards when sixth of seven at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) last time, but had been beaten half a length or less in three starts over this C&D prior to that, so does hold each-way claims returned to Wolverhampton.
