Form & Verdict

Had leading hunter chaser Ferns Lock's goose cooked when falling at the last in an Irish point 13 months ago; slow burner over hurdles for new connections but he ran better when second of 16 at Lingfield four weeks ago (2m3f, good to soft; easy winner has scored again since); should be quick enough for this test and he's a leading form contender.

Below par on soft ground on second rules outing but that run is flanked by a Carlisle third and a ready Wetherby success last month (2m3f, good to soft); should be fine back at 2m and he's greatly respected despite his 7lb penalty.

Signs of ability in two Irish points in the spring of 2021 and again when fourth of nine on his stable/rules debut two weeks ago (after 653 days off); needs a good step forward but, unlike some of these, that is still a distinct possibility; betting informative.
