Form & Verdict
Bought for £240,000 after winning an Irish maiden point (3m, yielding) on his debut in March; beaten about 10l when second at 6-5 on last month's bumper debut at Bangor (2m, good to soft) but that form nevertheless sets a good standard and he's open to improvement.

Unraced over hurdles since winning Cheltenham novice in 2024 but recent 2m7f/3m chase form has been very respectable and he's edging down the weights; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers; could have a say.

Steadily coming back to form since joining current stable, as a couple of third-place finishes this season attest; was a useful/progressive sort earlier in career and looks interesting off a reduced mark, assuming his resurgence is sustained.

Eight-race maiden over hurdles, but he's thrived since switched to fences this season, winning two of his three starts and arguably unlucky not to be 3-3 after a costly mistake at the last proved his undoing at Haydock in December; the 6lb rise demands more, but he may not have reached his ceiling just yet.
