No joy in four goes over fences and made a winning return on his handicap debut in this sphere at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in March; bumped into an improver when second at Hereford (2m, good) last month and should be on the premises.

Hasn't taken to fences this season but came right back to form reverting to hurdles last time, gaining a hard-fought win at Plumpton (2m, good to soft), his first success of any kind; handles most ground and 3lb rise leaves him still well treated on the pick of last season's hurdling form; leading contender.

Very well handicapped if judged on pick of last season's hurdling form but chasing has not gone to plan this term (four attempts) and his overall strike-rate is now 0-14; needs to turn a corner.

In process of running well before penultimate-fence mishap on seasonal debut at Fontwell (2m3f, heavy) but suffered a heavy defeat here (2m4f, soft) last month and is now 0-13 under all codes; drops back in trip today.

Rather mixed but in the process of running well when unseating two out behind an improver in a Fontwell chase (2m3f, heavy) last month; this is only his third run over fences so still time for him to do better.
