11st 7lb |
Made it 4-9 over fences when coming clear for a 24l success at Kempton in April (3m, good) but that race fell apart and he faded to be beaten a long way at Uttoxeter two months ago (3m2f, good); needs to leave that run behind but he's not handicapped out of it. |

Made it 4-9 over fences when coming clear for a 24l success at Kempton in April (3m, good); the two other finishers perhaps ran below form but a 4lb rise could have been a lot worse. |

Returned from break with good-ground C&D win in October and followed up at Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft) a few weeks later; struggled on heavy ground at Fontwell in December but has been freshened up again since and Sean Bowen keeps the ride; must be considered. |

11st 12lb |
On a long losing sequence and he was tried in a change of headgear when a below-form fourth of eight in 2m1f handicap here 13 days ago; this return to a longer trip should suit though so he's no forlorn hope from a slipping mark. |

Signed off for Christian Williams with win in three-runner novice hurdle in spring 2023; unseated rider at second fence when reappearing for new stable in recent handicap chase and remains a tricky horse to weigh up, but it won't be a surprise if he plays a significant role here; unraced on ground slower than good to soft. |

Finished lame when beating one other finisher in a 2m5f Fontwell maiden hurdle in May 2023 (good); achieved more when second in his previous race, a 2m7f maiden at Chepstow (good to soft); same owners but in a new yard and interesting chase/handicap debutant despite the long absence. |

There's potential in his pedigree and the way he kept on for a 19l fifth at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) last month suggests he could improve for this step up in trip on handicap debut; could be a leading player. |

7yo who won off 2lb higher at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) last summer; has not gone on from that in only four runs since but he ran well for a long way at Fontwell (3m2f) last month and has claims if he can build on that. |
