Hurdle debut; very impressive when winning bumpers at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) and Doncaster (2m, heavy) last season and he had excuses when tailed off in Grade 2 here (2m1f, good to soft) in April when sent off favourite (hampered and stumbled; bled from nose); remains a very exciting prospect.

Unextended to win bumpers at Carlisle (soft; subsequent winners adrift) and Doncaster (heavy), latterly defying a penalty in a canter; connections were tempted by Cheltenham but waited for this and he could be anything.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up on debut in Irish maiden point (3m, soft to heavy) in February, after which he was sold for £72,000; fair third (albeit soundly beaten) when favourite for Huntingdon bumper (2m, good) in April and could be suited by the step up in trip now hurdling, but a sizeable step forward is needed.

Some promise when midfield in a Warwick bumper and it was always going to be tough at Aintree in a novice won by the smart Mister Meggit; probably one for another day.
