Form & Verdict
Hasn't gone on from early promise in Irish point and a Perth maiden hurdle but he fared better when runner-up at Worcester (2m4f, good to soft) in June and wind surgery since, with a tongue-tie added to cheekpieces, could help over this sharp test; place chance.

Pulled up on chasing debut in January but, following a break, fared better when second (albeit well held) to revitalised opponent here (2m, good) three weeks ago; moves back up in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces today; may still have a bigger run in him.

0-7 under rules and has become disappointing, as when pulling up on his chase debut at Leicester (2m7f, soft) in January; hopes pinned on the four-month break, drop back in trip and return to good ground sparking a revival.

Soundly beaten when tried over 3m this month but made quite encouraging stable debut over 2m3f in April and has become very well handicapped on older form; interesting to see whether combination of drop back in trip, refitted cheekpieces and first-time tongue-tie enables a revival.
