A fair 2m2f hurdles winner at his best but he ended his time with Gary and Josh Moore out of sorts before Christmas; pulled up on his yard debut over C&D recently and tongue-tie is added here.

A dual hurdles winner (including over C&D) last season; shaped well on his return when runner-up over C&D in June but failed to beat a rival back here last time; the sort to bounce back though.

Two of his five wins over hurdles have been over C&D; has a decent record fresh and made a solid return when runner-up over C&D (good) last month; 5lb higher than his last winning mark though and a career-best is required.

Came good with narrow C&D (good) win in March and returned from break with two good efforts last month, the latter a C&D third (good; just behind Ez Tiger); likely contender again.

Form & Verdict
Won on the Flat this summer (wore cheeklpieces) and belied 66-1 odds when fourth in Stratford maiden hurdle (2m, good; no headgear) last month; well beaten on recent handicap hurdle debut, though, and difficult to enthuse over after that performance; cheekpieces refitted.

Won off this mark on his chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good) in May and the returning cheekpieces might help, but he's been tailed off on his last three chase starts and arrives with something to prove.

Winning chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good) in May but progress stalled when beaten 53l at Market Rasen in July; shaped well when runner-up back over hurdles here (2m1f, good to firm) 11 days ago and resumes over fences in a first-time visor; has more to offer in this sphere.

Made a bright start to his chasing career when scoring at Fakenham (2m, good) in May and bettered that when third off 5lb higher at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July; reverts to hurdles after a disappointing run at Market Rasen last time but not out of this if bouncing back.

Form & Verdict
Back in prime form when winning by 6l over fences on last month's stable debut at Worcester (2m, good); well held over that C&D on Wednesday, though, and it's hard to know what to expect from him on first hurdling start since 2023; tongue-tie added.

Three wins over fences this season and last two have been at Fontwell (2m2f/2m3f, good to soft); well-held second of four at Plumpton 19 days ago but that was behind an improver from the Nicholls yard; 10lb lower on this return to hurdling and he's an interesting contender in suitable conditions.

Mostly in very good form since joining this yard and under a positive ride he held on comfortably when back from a break at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft), beating a reliable yardstick in the process; 4lb rise was fair; cheekpieces replace usual tongue-tie.

Made a winning debut for Chris Gordon in September and has continued to run well in defeat; this longer trip shouldn't be a problem but he has been edging up the weights and he's 2lb out of the handicap here.
