Tailed off in a bumper and three hurdles races from 2m to 2m5f; enters handicaps with an awful lot to prove and principally of interest due to his connections.

Showed only minor promise when a big-priced outsider for first two hurdle runs (2m/2m3f) and will probably be of greater interest when qualified for low-grade handicaps.

Form & Verdict
Exactly two years since his Worcester bumper success (2m, good) and unable to build on that form effort to any extent on either sighting since; jumps winners from 2m-2m6f in immediate family, and precise requirements over hurdles at this stage may take a race or two to become clear.

Generally disappointing in handicaps since winning 2m maiden a year ago and steps up in trip off a career-low mark; worth a look in the betting.

Only outpaced on the final turn in at Hereford last time (2m, good; beaten 16l), serving notice that today's longer sort of trip is closer to present optimum; likelier one for handicaps after this.

Finished a remote fourth over 2m3f here in February before taking a backward step when tailed off at Exeter (extended 2m5f, good) two weeks ago when tried in a hood (retained), both times ridden by a 7lb claimer; still lightly raced but needs to step up considerably.

The odd whiff of ability in light career; left the Newland/Insole stable for 1,000gns last July and finished third in a maiden point in November on his only start since; insubstantial claims on handicap debut but his stable won a handicap last Sunday with its first hurdles runner of the season.

Weakening late effort on both hurdles starts thus far, but still recorded another big personal best RPR last time in an appreciably warmer Cheltenham contest (2m4.5f, good); can make the drop in class count.

1-9 over hurdles; makes chasing debut from a workable mark but has become very inconsistent and was well beaten in first-time cheekpieces last month (2m7f); drops back in trip with visor tried here; not easy to predict.

Mixed form last season; peak efforts included third at Market Rasen (2m2f) on Boxing Day and second off this mark at Hereford in April latest; not guaranteed to back that up but he's in the mix if repeating that effort with cheekpieces now added.

Consistent all of last term other than on genuinely soft ground, but March's Plumpton handicap third (2m5f, good) on his first outing following wind surgery was a fifth podium finish of the season without converting any; vulnerable again to anything more upwardly mobile.

In the frame all six starts since switch to chasing in the autumn, including course win (2m3f, good) in first-time cheekpieces in March; ran big race when second (albeit well held in the end) over 2m5f here last month; strong claims if stamina holds out over this longer trip.

Still needs to learn to jump better under late pressure, but this month's Newton Abbot 3l second (2m1f, good) rates his closest finish yet in this discipline; need for longer trip assumed rather than proven.

Sedgefield winner in September under Freddie Keighley; that form has some substance but he failed to build on it in a higher grade next time; ran well enough on his return at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in first-time cheekpieces last month and blinkers are now tried, but he remains on a tough mark.

Off since below-par run in October but the form of his breakthrough win at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in September worked out quite well; cheekpieces (worn once last summer) are given another whirl; contender if fully tuned up.

Well down the pecking order in his top yard but opened his hurdles account in Sedgefield handicap (2m1f, good; beat a subsequent scorer) most recently and may build on that solid success; respected.
