Pulled up (bled from the nose) at Cheltenham Festival in March but quickly bounced back with creditable second to Long Draw there (3m, good) last month; on a tough mark now but was placed in this race last year and probably won't be far away. |

Ended last season in excellent form, completing a hat-trick with a ready C&D success (good; Thank You Ma'am second) in a quite valuable series final three weeks ago; last two wins were under today's claiming rider Callum Pritchard; probably still on the upgrade; good chance. |

Can front-run; won three small-field handicaps this season, including last two starts and the latest (on good to firm; under Calumn Pritchard) seemed to be a career best; up another 6lb and it's not clear whether soft ground can be blamed for lesser efforts in two more competitive fields, but he needs plenty of respect. |

Runner-up over 2m5f here in November (good) and went one better over C&D the following month (good to soft), drawing 5l clear; boxed on for a 7l fourth at Wincanton (3m) the next time and today's stiffer finish should be in his favour; could yet prove himself worthy of this sort of mark (last win was off 8lb lower). |
