Respectable strike-rate (Flat/hurdles) during his spell with Fergal O'Brien; encouraging placed effort at Kempton (2m5f; second run for new yard) most recently; won a race of this nature at Aintree (2m, soft; off 2lb lower) two years ago.

Form & Verdict
Both wins have come over hurdles, the latest in January; best effort on the Flat came when beaten half a length here (1m6f, good to soft) a year ago and he is 2lb lower now, but others hold more compelling claims; stable won this last year.

A rising force in the last 15 months and that's gained serious momentum in his last two starts, when winning easily by 7l at Newbury (extended 2m7f, good to soft) and 5l in the Sussex National at Plumpton (3m5f, good); strong-travelling sort who's now seeing out his races really well too; up another 10lb but could still have more in the locker.

Won over C&D (good) last March and reappeared with creditable third of 16 at Windsor (3m4f, soft) in January; bounced back from lesser run with convincing win at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft) last month and this progressive 7yo may be able to take a 9lb rise in his stride.

Fine return to action when close third over 3m4f at Windsor (soft; handles good) in January, but he was a bit disappointing over this C&D next time and needs to bounce back.

Form & Verdict
0-5 since making a winning debut in a three-runner Leicester novice (1m4f, heavy) last spring, but he ran well when a close second of five on last month's Pontefract return (2m2f, heavy); that form has since been boosted and this unexposed stayer has to be considered.

Improved markedly when switched to handicaps last year, winning on soft ground at Newbury (1m2f) and Brighton (1m4f); returning from seven months off when third of 13 at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to soft) 13 days ago, but she now has to prove her stamina upped significantly in trip.

Quite useful on the Flat for former yard, winning three times at up to 1m6f; given that ability she's been quite disappointing in her two races over hurdles (at 2-1 and 6-1).
