1-24, the win coming by a nose at Wetherby (2m, good to firm) over two years ago; 28-1 when second of five over C&D (Quercus Robur last) three weeks ago but that was a messy event and he'll need a bit more today.

A lot of years since his trainer saddled a Flat winner and he'll do very well to end the run, back from almost a year off and from 6lb out of the handicap under Venetia Thompson (0-7 under both codes currently).

All five wins at 2m, including three on soft going, latterly at Catterick in October; went back-to-back at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and fourth at Ripon (2m, good) on latest outing was close to his best; same mark, so needs to find extra, but he can't be ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Better known as a jumper now but was very respectable fifth when returned to the Flat at Catterick (1m4f, good to soft) in April; looked stretched by 2m on soft ground on latest Flat start but remains unexposed over this trip on decent ground, and he proved his wellbeing when placed over fences a fortnight ago; one to consider.

Yet to win over fences but has performed with credit in all four chases, the latest a C&D third last month; acts on all ground and chance may depend on effect of first-time cheekpieces.

Quite encouraging seasonal debut when fifth of 13 at Thirsk (1m4f, soft) in April but three very underwhelming runs have followed and he remains without a win since 2021; goes beyond about 1m4f for first time here.

Form & Verdict
Placed in basement-grade classified at Newcastle (12.4f, AW; first-time visor) in February and was close second over hurdles last month; career strike-rate now stands at 0-46 but he's well worth another go at 2m on the Flat and has each-way claims at least.

Has a patchy record and both wins have come on AW but she returned from a break with a close call at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) in June; this is a deeper race but she pulled clear with the winner last time and is only 1lb higher here; respected.
