Won a premier handicap over 1m4f here at the 2022 festival, fair fifth of 17 in the same race last season; fit from a hurdling campaign in which he has been placed in three consecutive maidens; half-brother to the stable's 2016 winner Swamp Fox; brother to smart jumper Knappers Hill; potentially interesting if he gets the trip.
