Second reserve; after a stint over hurdles (1-5) he's back with his former trainer for whom he finished fourth in the 1m4f 3yo handicap here two years ago (off 3lb lower); seems to retain all his ability and would have each-way prospects if getting a run; well beaten on the Flat in sole attempt in cheekpieces.

Disappointing on sole run this year, when making stable debut in Group 3 at Epsom in June; however, she was progressive for William Haggas last season, winning a Listed race at Ascot (7f, soft) last October, and she'll be of interest if rediscovering that promise in a first-time tongue-tie.
