Form & Verdict
Placed over hurdles in final three runs in Ireland and he returned to the Flat for new yard with an emphatic win at Wolverhampton (9.4f classified) on Saturday; has a penalty back in a handicap but he's due to be 2lb higher in future and his confidence should be boosted after that breakthrough win; interesting contender.

Dual C&D winner; drops into a 0-55 for the first time since completing the last leg of a four-timer at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in February, since when he has won over hurdles; may have done too much early when fifth of 12 back here 18 days ago; very much of interest at this level; stable also runs Boujee Gold.

Improved form when off the mark (seventh attempt) in a C&D handicap last month; couldn't hang in there when dropped back to 1m at Chelmsford last time but he wasn't beaten far and still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; dangerous back up in trip.
