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.

Smart dual-purposer type got the Galway Hurdle in the stewards' room last summer and beat very useful Absurde in conditions' hurdle last month; his Flat run at Chester in September proved that he's worthy of this mark and showed he had a bit of boot when running well over 1m on AW pre-Cheltenham.

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.

Dual Flat winner was a good second of 15 on hurdles bow at Downpatrick in September (2m2f, yielding) and would have made the winner work for it if not unseating his rider at the last at Tramore in April (2m, soft); of concern is that the worst of his three hurdle runs came over C&D in October when a 21l sixth of 13 but could go well; well beaten on Flat when last seen.

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.
