Started off for Olly Murphy with three hurdle wins this spring (2m6f-2m7f); well beaten on chasing debut in July but travelled strongly for a long way before fading into fourth at Stratford (3m3f, good to firm) last month, and today's drop back in trip looks the right move; shortlisted.

Form & Verdict
Regressive 8yo who was badly out of form over fences and hurdles for Gary and Josh Moore last season; changed hands for £7,000 in May; makes his stable debut from a dangerous mark and could quite plausibly have been perked up by the change of scenery; swaps blinkers for first-time visor.

Lightly raced 7yo who bolted up on stable/chase debut at Perth (3m, good) last July; went up 24lb for that success but he continued the good work when runner-up at Uttoxeter (3m2f/3m) in his final two starts last year; returns after 168 days off but his last win was after a break and he still has potential as a chaser; interesting contender with cheekpieces added.
