Not at his best at Ffos Las 17 days ago (went off quickly for the first 3f) but his first two runs for David Evans were both encouraging enough; visor left off today; down in weights and one to consider.

Had regressed since winning three times on the Flat in 2020 and was unable to land a blow in Market Rasen maiden hurdle on stable debut in April but makes his handicap hurdle debut off a lowly mark and with cheekpieces refitted; no surprise if he gets a bit more competitive this time.
