Form & Verdict
Inconsistent and soundly beaten in a point-to-point last month; however, he won one in March (3m, good to soft) and was also on the scoresheet in a hunter chase at Kelso (2m7f, soft) in January; capable of a bold show.

Won a Kelso hunter chase last January and second in one last May; having run creditably in December on his last two outings, third of 13 over C&D on latest, he is in serious calculations.

Respectable third at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) on hunter chase debut in February and also ran well when close second to a subsequent bumper winner in restricted point at Flete Park last month but others in this line-up look stronger.
