Launched chasing career with two wins in the autumn (2m/2m3f. good to soft/good) and generally remained in good form until end of last season; looked a non-stayer over 2m7f on latest outing and now drops back in trip with usual cheekpieces refitted; recent 3lb drop gives him a decent chance.

Has done well since switched to this discipline (winning twice) and his blowouts have come in strong races, latterly in the 2m4f Greatwood Gold Cup here three weeks ago; more exposed than some in here and he's unraced past 2m5f, but can be competitive off this mark.

Form & Verdict
A long way clear of the third when second at Aintree (2m1f, heavy) in December; that's among the best form in this line-up, so he's one to consider seriously despite a disappointing show at Taunton (2m, soft) in January.

Runner-up three times, latterly in a soft-ground maiden here last month; returns to this level after finishing midfield in the Imperial Cup (lost a shoe); major form claims in the new cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
Tailed off in two bumpers but caught the eye of the stewards when 15l third on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy); tried in cheekpieces that day and again when fifth of 12 in maiden at Wincanton (1m7f, heavy) 11 days ago, showing further modest form so he looks best watched for now.

Safely held when 25-1 for handicap debut at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) just over a year ago and not seen again since but remains very unexposed and is well worth keeping an eye on in the betting; tongue-tie added.

Runner-up in two points and 6l third of ten in a bumper at Aintree, all in the spring of 2022 and he's not been seen since; unraced on softer than good; this looks a weak race but some caution has to be advised.
