Form & Verdict
Bang there in 2m1f/2m5f handicaps (heavy/good) but fluffed a good opportunity over 2m3f (soft) here two months ago when odds-on; that was still a fair effort and the principal concern here is the significant rise in distance (unraced beyond 2m5f).

Form & Verdict
Justified market support with a workmanlike win at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy), his fourth hurdling success; clear second behind an easy winner at Chepstow and gives the impression that today's stiffer stamina test will work in his favour.

Gained three of his five hurdle wins at this track (2m4f/2m7f) but looked out of sorts and was pulled up here (2m4f, good to soft) on recent chasing debut; should be fine over today's trip but needs to rebound.

An idling winner over C&D (soft) last month and again he appeared to lack concentration in the finish when beaten narrowly on his return here; raised 4lb for that defeat but unlikely to be far away again.

Launched chasing career with two fairly respectable runs on soft ground this summer (3m2f/2m7f); needs to take a step forward today but is now 2lb lower than when winning a fast-ground hurdle in May and may benefit from the addition of cheekpieces; interesting.

Suffered near misses at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) and Newcastle (2m7f, soft) before probably not appreciating the experiment with blinkers at Ayr; with the cheekpieces back on he has to be respected.

Made an underwhelming return in November from a long layoff but has run well in defeat twice since, more recently when clear second to a next-time-out winner at Newcastle (2m7f, soft) last month; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here; major player.

Both wins have come on heavy ground, the latest four weeks ago at Newcastle (2m6f) when prevailing by 2l in first-time cheekpieces despite a late mistake; 5lb higher and without Emma Smith-Chaston's 3lb claim this time, while this is a higher grade.
