Held on gamely to win heavy-ground maiden at Carlisle (2m1f) in February but was soundly beaten in both handicaps since, the latter his seasonal/chase debut last month; reverts to hurdling with a point to prove.

Won over 2m here last March but nothing in two runs this season and there are stamina doubts; the return of a hood (fitted for that win) could help.

Lightly raced 4yo who was close up in the second of two handicap hurdles (2m3f, good) but was poised to better that by some way when misjudging the second last and coming down on his chase debut at Bangor (2m1f, soft) 22 days ago; major player if none the worse.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Something to prove having been pulled up on his hurdle debut at Sedgefield last month; however, he reportedly had an irregular heartbeat and retains potential in view of his good bumper form (including on heavy ground here); could play a leading role if leaving last time behind.

9yo who has had an interrupted career and is 0-10; hard to fancy on the majority of his form but he didn't run badly in a novice at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) recently on his second start back from a long absence and has far more realistic claims now back in a handicap; cheekpieces go on.
