Triple hurdles winner at up to 2m5f on slow ground; has been below par in all four starts since returning from a break; drops in grade and is back on a handy mark for a stable among the winners; heavy ground a slight concern but no surprise to see a revival.

0-9; placed in two Wetherby bumpers (both good to soft) last year; also showed some ability in a novice hurdle at that venue (2m3f, soft) and again over that C&D in handicap company last month; has to prove he handles heavy ground but not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Heavy-ground bumper winner; hasn't yet managed to build on that over hurdles, including when coming in for some support on his return from wind surgery at Ayr (3m, soft; handicap debut) last month; drops 2lb and has a bit to prove but a competitive effort would not surprise.

0-16 since winning on debut in March 2023 and he's 5lb out of the handicap today; however, he's been hinting in chases at about 3m this year that today's extra test of stamina may be right up his street; interesting for stable that had an excellent weekend.

Likely to have had a major say in the outcome but for the late voiding of a race at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) in March; let down by his hurdling both subsequent starts; tackles a new trip but is capable of being involved from an easing mark, in a newly applied tongue-tie, if hurdling slicker.
