Form & Verdict

Nearly two years since he won a couple of novice hurdles and was badly out of form earlier this year; perked up in a major way by this combination of aids (both on for first time) when close second to a subsequent winner at Uttoxeter last month and leading claims if repeating.

Form & Verdict

Twice ran well over C&D last year and finally off the mark, at the 34th attempt, when beating two rivals in a Ludlow maiden in October; could figure on return from a break but others preferred for win purposes.
