Pulled up over fences in May following a break but has reached the frame in all three starts since fitted with a visor this summer, latest back over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f, good) when third to a subsequent winner; shaped as though well worth a try over this longer trip and is a leading contender.

Not seen over hurdles since 2024 but was clear second to a progressive rival over fences here (2m4f, good) in July and switches back to this code on the same mark; no surprise if he features.

His sole success over fences came at Market Rasen (2m1f, soft) last July off 2lb higher; didn't offer a great deal once headed when third at Southwell (2m5f, good) last month in a first-time visor (retained) but has dropped to a career-low mark with Sean Bowen on board so all is not lost.

Sole success over fences came at Market Rasen (2m1f, soft) last July off this mark; has been pulled up on his last two starts and a first-time visor replaces tongue-tie and cheekpieces; could have a say if the new headgear works.

Didn't jump well when pulled up in first-time blinkers at Plumpton last November when last seen; however, he was in good form previously in cheekpieces and they go back on today; could have a big say.
