J: Sean Bowen

T: Olly Murphy

Returned from spell in Germany with a fair stable debut at Chepstow in April, where he was left in third at the last; slightly below that level at Southwell (also 2m, good) the following month and he was another to chuck in a clunker when pulled up at Newton Abbot (good to soft) last time; steps back up in trip (probably stays this far) with cheekpieces added to his tongue-tie.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Olly Murphy

Returned from spell in Germany with encouraging stable debut at Chepstow last month, where he travelled strongly in rear before keeping on steadily for third; slightly below that level at Southwell last month but did not enjoy a favourable tactical scenario there and remains well handicapped.

Returned from spell in Germany with an encouraging stable debut at Chepstow last month, where he travelled strongly in rear before keeping on steadily for third; remains well handicapped and will be dangerous if that recent outing brought him on.

Won small-field Plumpton chase for Harriett Dickin (2m1f, good) just over a year ago and is back in Britain after four-race spell for a German stable towards end of 2024; not an easy one to weigh up at present but it will be interesting to see what Olly Murphy can do with him.
