Won over hurdles on stable debut at Warwick in May and reportedly made a respiratory noise at Market Rasen the following month; little to suggest this different discipline is likely to suit, though.

Poor form in bumpers and over hurdles for Alexandra Dunn, but finished off strongly to score from 5lb out of the handicap on first start for this trainer at Warwick (2m5f, good; 16-1) a fortnight ago; that was a solid building block; up to 3m, with prospect of further rain the risk-factor.

Multiple Flat/AW winner at up to 2m2f; acts on a sound surface; 0-4 over hurdles; new headgear now tried; will need some improvement to defy this initial handicap mark over hurdles.

J: Mr Alex Chadwick

T: Ian Williams

Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but has responded positively to this headgear combination the last twice in handicaps over 2m5f and 2m3f (both on good); strong stayer on the Flat so this longer trip is worth a go.

OR: 95

Form & Verdict
Debut bumper winner (good); some encouragement in his debut effort over hurdles too (2m3f, good); well below par over 2m on his last two starts but this longer trip should suit and he is a potential improver on his handicap debut, with his trainer having had a recent winner.

Had won a bumper and a handicap, but his all-the-way win at Wincanton last month (2m4f, good) was a career-best and the first-time visor must have been a factor; the handicapper didn't hold back with a 13lb hike but still much respected.

Won a bumper on good ground and a handicap hurdle (2m4f) on good to soft; ran right up to his best when third in a Taunton handicap in January but he was disappointing after wind surgery there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs new headgear to work.
