Form & Verdict
0-5 over hurdles for Chris Gordon last season, having found one too good when 1-3 favourite for Plumpton maiden on latest outing in April; however, he was creditable seventh of 17 in valuable EBF Final at Sandown (2m4f, soft) two starts ago and will be hard to beat if somewhere near that form over this new trip on stable debut.

Most consistent since chasing debut, twice making the frame over C&D (good to soft/soft) and again running creditably when a close third of six at Wincanton (3m1f, heavy); hard to knock and should be thereabouts again.

T: Anthony Honeyball

Won two C&D handicaps (soft/good to soft) early last year and the first leg was in this race; two creditable frame efforts in Class 2 events at Haydock this season and he may have paid the price for getting involved in a duel with a major improver last time; still unexposed over fences and he's an interesting contender on this big drop back in grade.

Point and maiden hurdle winner (good to soft) who bounced back from chase debut flop to win by 6l over C&D (soft) last month; a 5lb rise may not stop this unexposed 7yo today.

Irish point winner; tailed off in Hexham bumper for Sue Smith in May but fared much better when second over hurdles for latest new stable at Ludlow (2m5f, good) this month and has plenty of scope for improvement over today's longer trip.

Form & Verdict
Pulled up on chase/handicap debut a year ago (found to have irregular heartbeat post-race) but made pleasing reappearance when third of 11 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft) this month, and Donald McCain is evidently keen to move him up in trip.

Inconsistent sort who was pulled up on sole chase start and beaten before the trip may have been an issue in 3m1f maiden hurdle in November; however, that run may have come too soon, 12 days after a promising comeback in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle, and this point winner is not written off.
