Form & Verdict
Chased home two Charlie Appleby-trained runners when third (clear of the fourth) in a 1m maiden at Newmarket 16 days ago (good to firm); that is the best piece of form on offer and he's open to plenty of improvement; likely to face slower ground today but he is by Cracksman so it may not be an issue; major player.

Promoted winner of this race last year after receiving critical interference; has been mixing hurdling and Flat action since then, down the field in the County Hurdle; beat the very useful Absurde in a conditions' hurdle at Cork in April; kept ticking over with an odds-on Flat win in a 1m6f Listowel contest two months ago; 7lb higher than last year.

Didn't set the world alight in his three handicap hurdles (won his two previous hurdle starts); those handicaps were at up to 2m1f and he's much more of a stayer on the Flat, but his two Flat runs at Chester (where he won last season) this term were disappointing; tongue tied first time.

Unexposed 3yo who returned from a break with an improved third on her handicap debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; 33-1) two weeks ago; that was eyecatching from off the pace and she now drops back in trip but this well-bred filly has plenty of speed in her pedigree; interesting contender.
