None too consistent but he has won five times over fences, latest at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) in February off 3lb lower; beaten a neck back there off this mark last month and his best chance of further success is perhaps back at that venue.

Form & Verdict
Creditable efforts on both completed starts this season (has pulled up twice), last time finishing second of three finishers at Leicester (2m6f, heavy, first-time blinkers) on second run after wind surgery; headgear retained; not without a chance despite being 2lb out of the handicap.

Stayed on dourly to win two-finisher contest over C&D (soft) in April but it might be wise to treat that form with a degree of caution and an 8lb rise asks a lot of him on this first start for seven months.

Form & Verdict
Failed to win over hurdles, although shaped well on a few occasions; got off the mark on chase debut when a 13l-winner of a Market Rasen novice handicap (3m, soft) last month; went up 9lb for that, but the form is solid (third and fourth have won since) and he looks the one to beat.
