T: Kim Bailey & Mat Nicholls

Confined to good ground for all eight races; a bumper and two-time novice hurdle winner who has been running well in staying handicap hurdles and he may well improve for going chasing, as did his useful dam.

T: Kim Bailey & Mat Nicholls

Good ground for all seven of his races; won in small fields for a maiden (here) and a novice hurdle; ran creditably in 3m/2m7f handicaps on last two outings, seemingly needing some respite from the handicapper, who's not made much of a reaction, but this field may offer him a better chance.

Form & Verdict

Runner-up on debut in Irish maiden point (3m, soft to heavy) in February and changed hands for £72,000 in February; new trainer is enjoying an excellent season with his bumper runners and he's firmly in calculations.
