Form & Verdict
Bumper winner two seasons ago; remote third on chase debut over 3m at Punchestown in December; fell two out in Navan event won by stablemate Minella Cocooner; possibly flattered by proximity to Irish Grand Grand National hopeful Senior Chief when third at Punchestown; plenty of weight here, and several of his rivals have good claiming riders aboard.

0-14 since bumper win in 2022; fourth and second in the last two Scottish Nationals, latterly off a reduced mark when wearing second-time cheekpieces two weeks ago; while that was a welcome return to form, position 12lb out of the handicap today demands so much more; 5lb claimer is called up.

Won a bumper three years ago but 0-13 since; competitive over fences last season and his 6l fourth at 50-1 in this race (soft; 8lb lower today) last April reads well, but a poor sequence since was not greatly improved by his eighth when wearing first-time cheekpieces in last month's 3m6f NH Chase.
