Hasn't the best of win records (4-43 over hurdles), last win coming over 2m2f here in September 2023; good fourth over 2m5f here last month, but tailed off last time; 10lb out of the handicap.

Returned to form with 2l fourth of 11 behind Looking Splendid at Kelso (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; however, it's over two years since this 10yo last won and he's even further out of the handicap this afternoon.

Won twice here (including over C&D) in 2023 but this year's pointing form is uninspiring and he has struggled back over fences and hurdles in last three starts; mark is tumbling but he has plenty to prove.

This year's pointing form is uninspiring and he has struggled on both starts since returned to racing under rules, more recently when pulled up in recent 2m4f hurdle won by Top Flight Century; 6lb wrong today.

J: William Maggs

This year's pointing form is uninspiring and he struggled (albeit from out of the weights) when back under rules in 2m chase here in May; reverts to hurdling on his correct mark but still makes only limited appeal.
