T: Dan Skelton

Useful Flat form in France; after winning a maiden hurdle for Willie Mullins he was essentially disappointing under both codes and has got nothing going for Dan Skelton, with his latest run after wind surgery at Newton Abbot thoroughly underwhelming (8-1 and weak in the betting); very much the stable second string.

T: Dan Skelton

Useful Flat form in France; after winning a maiden hurdle for Willie Mullins he was essentially underwhelming under both codes and has got nothing going in three runs for Dan Skelton, including handicaps at the Cheltenham and Aintree festivals; in calmer waters here after a wind operation and disappointing should he not show a lot more.

No promise in handicaps around 2m5f (Martin Pipe at Cheltenham latterly) since joining Dan Skelton; his hurdle form for Willie Mullins came at around 2m, so it's possible the drop back in trip will help, but the yard's other runners hold more obvious claims.

Failed to complete on his last two runs, falling on final start for Willie Mullins then pulled up in 2m5f handicap when 66-1 for new yard; with those letters next to his name, he cannot be supported confidently in a race of this depth.

Formerly trained by Willie Mullins; best effort over hurdles when second in conditions event at Punchestown (2m, heavy) in December; third when falling two out next time; hardly looks thrown in on handicap hurdle debut so probably best watched on first outing for a new yard.
