Fair on the Flat in his prime but has a lowly mark in that sphere nowadays; ran well to a point on last month's hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) and might last longer on today's faster ground but others appeal more all the same.

Found 1m much too sharp last time; better judged on front-running win at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) in April and creditable third at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) two starts ago; visor on for first time and should be thereabouts if it has a positive effect.
