Disappointing in a Huntingdon handicap last time (soft ground not an obvious excuse) but had run respectably at Newbury (behind notable rival) and Ascot (handicap debut) prior to that; strong contender in today's company.

Form & Verdict
Fair Flat maiden; can race too freely and the hood tried (tongue-tie retained) in a Taunton handicap last time is soon removed; he's not overly trustworthy but has run okay in novices won by good horses and certainly has the form to win this.

Form & Verdict
Ran well in two Irish bumpers before changing hands for £30,000; raced freely in both his hurdles but showed plenty of ability in finishing about 4l off the winner in novices at Newbury (heavy) and Ludlow (soft); today's drier surface could work in his favour.

Lost out by only a short head on stable/handicap hurdle debut at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in March 2025; that form puts him right in the thick of things here but he returned from a long absence with two disappointing AW runs this spring and needs to prove his wellbeing; tongue-tie added.
