Dug deep to win quite valuable final of this Sea Pigeon series in refitted cheekpieces at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) in March and was second over C&D (soft) the following month but will need to return from his break in peak form to have any chance off career-high mark.

Form & Verdict
Belied 33-1 odds when close second on hurdle debut at Sligo (2m1f, good) in June and did not need to better that performance to justify short-odds favouritism over C&D (good to soft) last month; has a lot more on his plate in this handicap but should have more to offer.
