Form & Verdict
Had been looking exposed over hurdles but this 5yo improved for the switch to chasing when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; there can be optimism he'll be fine now back up in trip and he could have more to offer over fences; a 5lb rise may not stop him.

Solid record (over 2m-2m4f) since switched to fences, winning at Uttoxeter and Wetherby then creditable second at Wincanton; certainly an in-form contender but this looks a slightly stiffer assignment.

Consistent across his five chase starts (2m3f-2m5f, heavy-good), finishing a close second on reappearance at Wetherby four weeks ago; untested at today's trip under rules, and this is a stiff track, but he won a point over 3m and could have a big say if seeing out the distance.

Form & Verdict
He won on his chase debut at Southwell in February and runs off a 4lb lower mark today; struggling for form in May-July when last seen but a break may have helped and he's not discounted off a dangerous mark.
