Form & Verdict
Two whiffs of ability, the latest when sixth of 14 in novice at Newcastle (2m1f, soft) after wind surgery; heavy defeat at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) later in January, again making the running, but he was 40-1 and should be much more interesting in this 2m race for handicap debut; hooded three starts back and again today.

Has only won over fences (three times) and still held some sort of chance when unseating nine days ago at Market Rasen; his hurdle form isn't so convincing, though.

28-1 under Luke Scott for handicap debut at Catterick (near 2m, soft) last month but showed improved form in third of seven, no extra after four had been in line at the final flight; considered.

Form & Verdict
Fair on Flat (stays 1m6f); four runs over hurdles, taking third in two novice events before same again in 17-runner novice handicap at Doncaster (good) three weeks ago; that gives him a big shout in this much smaller field but he does have more to prove if it's soft ground.

Three wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from nine runs over C&D; will need a career-best off this mark, though, and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh (off since January).
