Won over C&D (good to firm) last August and this lightly raced 4yo reappeared with a respectable third at Hamilton (1m3f, good) this month behind comfortable winner Alpine Sierra, who followed up; he's 11lb better off with his old rival this afternoon and could build on that latest effort.

Low-mileage 3yo; off the mark in Carlisle event (1m3f, good to firm) in August and he arguably improved on that when second at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) 18 days ago; cheekpieces go on and there should be better to come.

Down the field when 9-2 for last month's handicap hurdle debut over 2m4f at Ayr; however, trainer's representative reported he may have been unsuited by the soft, heavy in places ground; showed promise in three juvenile hurdles towards the end of last year (2m1f/2m, soft/good to soft) and this 4yo retains potential back down in trip and back on better ground.

0-9 on the Flat but he's shown promise on all three hurdle starts and has potential off his opening mark judged on his close second at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December; receives handy 4yo allowance and he could have a big part to play if seeing out this new trip.
