Fair on the Flat at around 1m2f for the Kublers last year and made satisfactory stable/hurdle debut when fourth (albeit well held) against own age-group at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) in March; ideally needs to settle better but the forecast faster ground here ought to suit; each-way claims.

He's gone 0-12 in handicaps but is edging down the weights and ran well to finish fourth of ten at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last time (form has been franked); this season's runs have been in Class 3s so this is a drop in grade.
