Got off the mark in a Fontwell juvenile last December (soft); second on his handicap debut at Plumpton (2m4f, good) in April, he fell early on next time and was pulled up following a bad error last time; still has time on his side and not out of this on this step up in trip.

Won a weak race here on hurdling debut in December; second under Ben Ffrench Davis at Plumpton (extended 2m4f, good) early last month in his first handicap but only four of five finished and he unseated early here on latest outing; early days but he probably needs some improvement.

Form & Verdict
Flat promise at 1m, including on good to soft; in rear on hurdle debut at Wincanton in October, when back from nearly a year off, but his recent run here was better; seems likely he has more to come at this level if handling soft ground.

Modest form in six Flat runs and he's 0-11 over hurdles; beaten 11l when fifth at Taunton (2m, good; 15-8 favourite) in March but he went close there on his penultimate run and has claims if he recapture that form.

Form & Verdict
Acts well on testing ground and beat a subsequent winner in ready fashion on hurdle debut at Cartmel (2m1f, heavy) in August; two respectable efforts back hurdling on last two starts, including when coming from well back at Leicester on Thursday; every chance.

Won at Cartmel on stable debut in August but has failed to match that level since and her latest effort back from a break was underwhelming; visor now goes on and she's down in the weights but she has a bit to prove at present.

Won at Cartmel in August on stable debut (2m1f, heavy); rather disappointing since and was beaten a long way when stepped up to 2m3f on second handicap start at Huntingdon last time (good to soft; first run for 72 days); may do better with first-time cheekpieces.

No progress in handicaps at 1m2f-1m6f (all in cheekpieces) for Rae Guest; sold for 1,000gns; new yard has done well with sibling Chourmo on the Flat this year but no surprise if this one needs the experience on hurdle debut.
