11st 3lb

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Dual hurdle winner (latterly here) this summer who made quite promising chase debut and wasn't beaten far when fifth of nine at Uttoxeter (2m, good) a fortnight ago; can build on that performance and play a major role.

Dual hurdles winner this summer and may still have more to offer despite being unplaced last time; siblings include his stable's useful chaser Unexpected Party; respected on debut over fences.

Advanced his form when gaining a first win at Stratford (2m) in June and easily doubled his tally in four-runner novice (2m1f) at Newton Abbot 17 days ago; must enter calculations back in handicap company.

Opened his account over hurdles in a Stratford handicap (2m, good to firm) in June off a mark of 99 and ran a solid race when runner-up off 3lb higher at Worcester last month; more is required under a penalty back in novice company against a couple of these but he shouldn't be far away.
