Nine-race maiden who returns from 382 days off but he finished a creditable third on good ground at Warwick (2m3f maiden) and Uttoxeter (2m handicap) in his final two runs last spring; yard is in good form and he needs watching in market on his comeback.

Went up 6lb for a narrow success at Warwick (2m, good) but it wasn't only his new mark to blame for his disappointing return there; had some excuses in fairness, but now has to bounce back.

Last four runs have been at 2m on good ground, the pick when winning off 7lb lower at Warwick in May and his recent seconds at Uttoxeter and here; clearly in good nick but he's been down the field in his two previous 2m4f races under rules.

Off the mark at Warwick in May (2m, good) and better form when second of five at Uttoxeter in June (form franked by the third); creeping up the weights but should remain a force at this level.

Only ninth in a bumper but has shaped with some promise in two maiden hurdles and appeals as the type to pay his way in handicaps; hood added.

Made it 3-11 over hurdles when scoring at Warwick (2m5f, good) in May but he's been vulnerable as favourite in last two starts; drops back in grade after a respectable fifth at Worcester (beaten around 6l) two weeks ago but he needs to find more progress back in trip.

3-10 over hurdles (2m-2m5f, good); improving 6yo who made a good start for this stable when a close fifth at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) in April and duly built on that when justifying favouritism at Warwick (2m5f) the following month, both times ridden by Megan Bevan; drop back to 2m shouldn't be too much of an issue and he's a big player off 4lb higher.

Form figures of 5075 at this meeting in the last four years; one win a season had previously appeared his quota but he's already exceeded that in 2026, having scored at Pontefract (1m4f/1m2f) on last two outings; that demands some respect but this race is a higher grade.

T: Ben Haslam

Four-time Flat winner, including C&D, who has been all or nothing since scoring over hurdles at Cartmel in July; three AW no-shows followed good second over C&D (soft; 40-1) in October but market support predicted a going day when scoring here (1m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; might not want the ground to get too quick but otherwise a key player under 2lb nudge.

Form & Verdict
Flat winner in 2021 for Roger Charlton but wasn't in anything like the same form last year for a different yard, including over hurdles; made a quiet debut for this trainer in a novice hurdle three months ago and has had further wind surgery in the meantime; plenty to prove.
