Form & Verdict
Built up fairly encouraging stable debut when winning from off the pace at Catterick (2m3f, soft) in November but was pulled up over same C&D in December and it's hard to tell whether he'll be in the right mood here.

Form & Verdict
No match for progressive rival when second on seasonal debut at Southwell (2m, good) in January but that still goes down as a good effort, and he's now back on the same mark as when winning at Catterick (1m7f, good to soft) last term; major player.

J: Charlie Todd

T: Sam Allwood

Without a win since 2021 but has made the frame on all four starts this season, most notably when second at Sedgefield (2m3f, soft) two runs ago; continues to slip down the weights and has possibilities if the first-time cheekpieces give him a boost.

Returned from long absence with quite encouraging hurdle run in May and ran well for a long way over C&D (good; race in which Salamanca Bay fell) last month; finished rather weakly on both occasions but might last longer if first-time hood helps him to settle better in early stages today.

Got his act together over fences with clearcut C&D (heavy) win in January and is not yet fully exposed but was a shade disappointing when fourth behind Lake Takapuna here (soft) last month; untested on ground quicker than good to soft.

C&D winner who is well handicapped on form as recent as last March and today's drop back in grade could help; however, his performances have been patchy this season and he needs to get back on track.
