Form & Verdict
Similar form in three starts last backend and some improvement to make a winning seasonal/handicap debut by a nose in five-runner race at Wolverhampton (1m4f; up 3lb today) 16 days ago; all those were on AW but he stays the trip well and could be capable of better still on this turf debut.

Useful handicapper on the Flat for George Boughey; off the mark on fourth hurdle start when taking Ludlow handicap in good style last time; drying ground suits; should go well despite 9lb rise.

Four wins for George Boughey at 1m2f/1m4f and useful in that scene; wouldn't have won but displayed some ability until falling at Sandown on hurdles debut in January; also offered something to work on in two starts the following month; Flat form makes this opening hurdle mark look dangerous.

Form & Verdict
His two runs in the mud were better than his two on good to firm; easily the best was his 7l win as 2-1 favourite in seven-runner race at Doncaster when upped to 1m4f on handicap debut 12 days ago; 9lb higher today but will be suited by every yard and could still be capable of better.

Minor honours last summer in his three 2yo runs; 14-1 and looked the first to be fighting a losing battle in handicap at Newmarket (1m2f, good) three weeks ago, after which he plugged on into a respectable sixth of nine behind a runaway winner but this new trip needs to unlock huge improvement.

Tongue-tie went on for six-runner handicaps on his last two hurdle races (2m1f/2m) and he won them both; his last Flat race was in 2024 for Tim Easterby and that was a pretty solid campaign; acts on Tapeta, unraced on Polytrack; needs to be at his best on return to Flat but no shock if he's a major player.

Eight-race maiden who ran well in AW handicaps over 1m-9.4f in December-January last three outings, beaten a head on latest; had comparable turf form earlier on; gelded since latest outing; worth a crack at 1m4f on performance and pedigree but breaking his duck in this race may be tricky.

All five wins have been at around 1m2f on good or quicker; last success was off 5lb lower but he reappeared with a fair third in Class 4 event over C&D (good to soft) last month; should go well on this drop back in grade and it would be a positive if the ground dries out.

Left 2yo form well behind when upped to about 1m4f for wins at Windsor (good) and Wolverhampton (AW); he's therefore 2-2 in handicaps and easily made all in the latter, which leaves him well handicapped under a 6lb penalty; bold show on its way.
