Form & Verdict
With cheekpieces returning he's gone back-to-back in 3m handicap chases at Fakenham, doing it very easily the last time under Callum Pritchard (on good to soft); returns to hurdling off the same mark and in a modest race; the one to beat.

Won two 3m chases before completing hat-trick over hurdles at the same trip; those were Class 5s and this prominent racer was pulled up in a Class 3 at Fakenham a month ago; that was too bad to be true but might be on a tough mark now.

Won over hurdles last year and ran big race when second over C&D (good; first-time blinkers) on last month's chasing debut; however, this quirky mare didn't appear to be helping her jockey much in the closing stages and always comes with risk attached.

Form & Verdict
Belied 50-1 odds when second at Huntingdon (3m1f, good) earlier this month but typical of him to blow out back there only three days ago; could have done without the recent rain.

19-race maiden; creditable fourth in a mares' handicap chase at Catterick last time (3m1f, soft; cheekpieces back on) when running from 7lb out of the handicap; closely matched with runner-up Baby Chou on that form (7lb better off for a 7l beating) and with headgear retained is not out of it.
