Five-time hurdle winner but 0-6 over fences; hasn't had much go his way since scoring in October but he was still in contention when unseating three out over fences last time in a race won by Dunkerque; now 10lb better off with that rival and he should be competitive given a change in fortune; forecast rain is a concern though.

Won 2m3f handicaps at Warwick and Wetherby (both on soft) despite jumping out to his right and, although headed, was still in contention when crashing out at the final flight at Kempton on Boxing Day (2m5f, good); raised an annoying 3lb for that and has stamina to prove over this far, but he's a 7yo on the rise.

Second in his only bumper and third in two maiden hurdles; favourite for handicap debut in eight-runner race here (2m4f, good to soft) on latest outing but was floundering before the home straight and finished more than 20l behind the first two; needs much better than that and cheekpieces go on for yard among the winners.

It wasn't a strong bumper that he won here on Boxing Day (good to soft) and he then ended up well held at Warwick; still commands respect in a maiden of this nature now kicking off for a new yard.

Off the mark with an easy win at Huntingdon in January (2m, good to soft); another good run at that track 18 days ago, making the running and jumping the last in front but tiring on the run-in, passed by Pescatorius in the final 100yds; should run well again.
