Form & Verdict

One of two runners for yard; won very well over C&D last time out off 80, coming from last to first and scoring by 3L; similar conditions today and another good run should be forthcoming off 6lb higher.

Form & Verdict

Veteran is 2-30 over hurdles and both his wins have been over this C&D; the last one came back in April 2019 off 85; is 5lb lower now but hasn't shown much since returning from long absence last September; return to this venue needs to spark a revival.
