J: Sam Twiston-Davies

Bought for £160,000 soon after finishing a close second to a subsequent hurdle winner in an Irish point last May; well beaten in a Cheltenham novice hurdle (2m4f, good to soft; 10-1) in October but had wind surgery since then and no doubt capable of a lot better; the market could be instructive.

Maiden prior to easily justifying favouritism at Stratford (2m6f, good) on chase/seasonal debut, improving plenty for the change of sphere; defied top weight on that occasion and, despite 8lb rise, is now at the other end of the handicap upped in grade; respected.

0-12 over hurdles but returned from break with two pretty good efforts towards end of last season, latterly third off today's mark at Newcastle (2m6f, good to soft); has a fighting chance if he takes well to chasing.

Bumper winner; last two runs have been at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft), going close in November and then beaten 10l in a useful race; he's up to winning a maiden and a tongue-tie now goes on.

0-5 but decent form when placed at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) on his debut last November and when third at Warwick (2m3f, good) in April; pulled up lame on his handicap debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month and may warrant another chance.

Hasn't kicked on from his encouraging debut (2m4f, good to soft) and probably needs to better that form to win this; however, it's still days and this gelding has a very appealing jumps pedigree.

Useful Flat racer who made the frame on four of his five hurdling starts for Donald McCain last season, most notably when third in valuable series final at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in March; well beaten in good-quality Flat handicap last month but ought to play a significant role in this.

9-1 when fifth in the Chester Cup last year for Andrew Balding, which is as good as he's ever been on Flat; 7lb lower today, having been right off the boil for that yard later in 2025; recent hurdle efforts for new stable aren't enough to persuade, especially given such a wide draw.
