Both hurdle wins came on easier ground but has been running well in defeat on good ground this year; having just third run over fences when third of 4 finishers in 2m5f Cartmel novices' handicap last month, only weakening late on; back in trip here and not one to rule out. |

Fell and tailed off in his two previous chases in late 2023; lightly raced in the meantime but returns to this discipline after three solid runs over hurdles, all handicaps from 2m1f to 2m4f; likely to go well again if he still fancies fences. |
