Dual course winner last winter (including C&D); probably should have won here a fortnight ago, throwing away the race by wandering in the closing stages (beaten 1l); same mark and return to further is fine. |

Off the mark at the eighth attempt when well backed for a 1m4f handicap here last month; up 7lb and the return to shorter isn't guaranteed to suit but he's less exposed than most; drawn wider than ideal. |

Campaigned mostly over hurdles since joining Adrian Keatley; was booked for second-place (at best) when taking a late fall at Southwell three weeks ago; switches back to the Flat in a newly applied visor; was previously effective on the AW at Dundalk, but difficult to know what to expect. |
