Form & Verdict
Left Paul Webber after two disappointing runs at start of this year and was unable to justify heavy market support when down the field in 2m2f hurdle for new stable in July; hiked back up in trip and sports refitted cheekpieces for today's return to chasing, though, and may yet turn things around; seems best suited by ground slower than good.

Rallied well to win small-field C&D (good) chase off today's mark in July and reverts to fences after perfectly respectable hurdle run from out of the weights here last month; likely contender.

Form & Verdict
Held narrow lead before last-fence fall over C&D (good) in May and also ran well over hurdles here in June; contender if judged on those efforts but Newton Abbot last month was disappointing and he's not yet proven on ground slower than good.
