Useful hurdler/chaser when with Tom Lacey but had very disappointing five-race spell with Stuart Coltherd last season and was tailed off behind Tommie Beau over hurdles here on stable debut in May; can cope with slow ground but needs combination of wind surgery and refitted tongue-tie to make a big difference.

Form & Verdict
Twice placed in French chases and respectable runs returned to fences the last twice, last time at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) only about 5l off Love Actually who won again last week at Kempton; could do with jumping a little better than that day but still respected on the back of wind surgery.

Win last February came off this mark but he's offered little in two runs over hurdles back from almost a year off, latterly for his new yard a fortnight ago; the return to fences needs to help.

Sole career win came in a Ludlow handicap chase in February of last year (3m, good); beaten a long way into third on his return from an absence in a 2m4f novice at Huntingdon.

Last run: 50 days

W: 11st 9lb

6 yo Gelding

OR: 125

Form & Verdict
Not yet matched his useful hurdle form over fences, albeit in the face of relatively tough tasks; a visor could help matters and, although very much at home on testing ground, he did win on good in France when blinkered (this is his first time in headgear for current connections).

Brings very strong credentials to this series final, having posted sound performances over C&D (good to soft) in last two starts, comfortably defying top weight latest; 2-6 overall for current yard; respected.

Back in good form for his current yard, landing 3m handicap chase at Wetherby in December and posting a good second of seven over C&D last time; very much one to consider off an unchanged mark.

OR: 123

Form & Verdict
Unraced over this far and he could do with settling better than on chase debut at Wetherby (2m3f, soft), but he kept on for a good third that day and was progressive over hurdles previously; commands respect.
