Placed on first two hurdling starts (1m7f/2m) and displayed improvement when upped to 2m3f for recent handicap debut at Bangor, where he travelled strongly before asserting on the run-in; moves up from Class 5 today but seems versatile ground-wise and probably still has more improvement to come.

Dual Flat winner who recorded his second success over hurdles when landing a conditional jockeys' event at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) ten days ago; escapes a penalty for that convincing win and this tough 6yo is a big player again.
