Won two bumpers on good ground last year; 0-6 hurdling but some good placings at up to 3m; tailed off in Pertemps Final at Cheltenham last time and yard look to have stronger contenders here.

Won two bumpers on good ground last year; 0-5 over hurdles but minor honours on last four occasions; 6-1, second of 13 to Champagne Chic when upped to 3m for Haydock qualifier (good to soft) on handicap debut last time, renewing his effort but not nearly as strongly as the winner on run-in; not that straightforward but there's time for him to get his act together and cheekpieces (worn in two of his bumpers, not the wins) return.
