Form figures of 212 in bumpers; jumped poorly on hurdling debut but was better when second to a Skelton favourite at Ffos Las (good to soft); the one they all have to beat. |

Won a good-ground bumper last summer but jumped poorly and was very disappointing favourite on recent hurdling debut; ought to improve with experience over jumps but Sean Bowen has deserted him today. |

Only made his handicap debut last week at Carlisle (2m1f, good) and would have got up in another few strides; should have no problem with this longer trip and he's 4lb higher in future. |

80-1 but took a big step forward on his third hurdling run when fourth of eight in C&D novice in February; he's much respected now going handicapping after a break. |

took keen hold, in touch with leaders, pulled way into lead with one circuit to go, soon went clear with winner, headed 2 out, outpaced final 110yds, no match for winner |

24th Sep 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Not beaten far in any of his three bumpers, most recently when fourth of five at Stratford (good) this month, but needs to take a big step forward on this hurdling debut and will remain a risky option until he learns to settle better. |
