Kelso and Cartmel 2m5f-2m6f chase wins have been gained from two of his three lowest ever marks; work to do back up 5lb and there's pace rivalry if a repeat of last time's all-the-way tactics is planned.

Winning pointer who was fourth on his sole previous run over fences in November 2021; very up and down over hurdles since then but he was third in Kempton's Lanzarote (2m5f, soft) in January so the ability is there to win this.
