Maiden after 18 starts but ran on well from rear for fourth over C&D on AW debut in December; 9lb out of handicap on latest so that run excused; runs off correct mark here so don't rule out. |

Subject of a gamble when runner-up at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in January, but hasn't matched that effort since including on his first start back with his former trainer (following a second wind operation) at Fakenham (2m, good) last month; others preferred. |

Won a 1m claimer on soft at Gowran in May 2023; best run over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice for this yard in January (2m, good to soft); not done as well for two different trainers over hurdles and on the Flat since; on a good mark and interesting back with Tony Charlton having had wind surgery. |

Both wins came at this trip, most recently at Down Royal in 2024 off 64 under today's rider; absent since moderate second in 2m Tramore handicap hurdle a year ago so may need this. |

Got much closer than previously when 5l behind the winner at Bellewstown (1m, yielding; first-time blinkers) this month, but still only seventh of 15; this is a drop in grade, though, and any market confidence would be interesting. |
