Form & Verdict
Well below best on both starts for Harriet Dickin this year (hurdle/Flat) but was placed in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (2m4f, good; also suited by soft) last October and will play a major role here if latest new trainer has him back at that level.

Both wins over hurdles came at Fontwell; having just her second go over fences when solid sixth in well-contested mares' handicap at Cheltenham (about 2m4f, good to soft) in December; disappointed at Huntingdon over further next time but had wind surgery shortly afterwards and might be worth another chance dropped back in trip.

Almost denied Easy To Follow in a heavy-ground hurdle once, but best figures win or lose have been returned on no worse than the good to soft of last month's tidy 5l sixth in a Cheltenham mares' 0-125; still early days for her as a chaser, appears to jump fine and holds strong claims.

Rediscovered the knack for new stable last year, including two front-running wins over 2m in four-runner Flat races and two places when the action got more competitive; returned to some hurdles form on last two outings in that sphere; a lesser show on Musselburgh Flat in between was over 1m6f but this race may also prove too tough.

Beat a subsequent maiden hurdle winner by 12l in slow-ground Irish point in November 2022 and was bought for £35,000 the following month; this stable debut has been a long time coming but, nevertheless, he's an interesting recruit for Chris Gordon.
