Form & Verdict
Flat scorer in Ireland and opened his hurdles account at Southwell in November (both wins on good going); form dipped in Wetherby handicap (good to soft) on Boxing Day; this stiffer test isn't sure to suit.

Fairly useful 2m hurdles winner in early 2023, but offered little for Nigel Hawke in a pair of 2m handicap hurdles at Leicester and Lingfield in December; needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Form & Verdict
2-2 in 3yo hurdles in France last year, including Listed win at Auteuil (2m1f, very soft); likely unsuited by the much faster surface when only fourth of five at Fontwell (good) on British debut; remains of interest.

Showed clear signs of retaining ability at Leicester last time (second run for new yard and since returning from long absence) but needs to build on that effort; faces a stiffer task upped in class.

Won 3yo Listed hurdle in France in June 2022; lightly raced since and tailed off at 22-1 on stable debut and second chase start at Wincanton (3m1f, soft) four weeks ago when back from another absence; not easy to fancy after that latest performance but he's one to watch in the betting.

Recorded a clearcut success in 3yo hurdle at Auteuil (1m7f, very soft) last April on sole French start and that form has worked out well; new trainer has won the last two runnings of this race; strongly respected.

0-7 on the Flat and 0-5 as a jumper; ran okay when first-time visored in a selling handicap two runs ago but then finished tailed off at Worcester; worth a go in blinkers as when tried once before he was under 5l away on the Flat.

0-6 on Flat in Ireland but runner-up on final outing (1m4f, soft; RPR 86); subsequently sold for 60,000gns and had wind surgery; shaped nicely when third at Ludlow yesterday but this would be a very quick return.

Patchy form over hurdles this year but he was fourth of seven in a Grade 2 4yo hurdle at Cheltenham in January, and he's on a competitive mark on his best Irish Flat form; respectable run when 10l second of six in a 1m4f AW novice three weeks ago and he's not ruled out.

Fairly useful maiden on his day on Flat, best form 1m4f on soft; had gelding and wind operations afterwards; third at Ludlow on hurdles/stable debut and much better form when 12l fourth of seven in Grade 2 here (2m1f, soft) next time; however, lots to find on that form, whereas he was a flop when favourite at Market Rasen on latest outing.
