Lightly raced 10yo whose chase win came in 2m4f Newcastle handicap over three years ago, more recently won 3m1f Ayr handicap hurdle early last year; seasonal return over fences at Cork in November encouraging but poor Haydock run (jumped and hung left) tempers enthusiasm; cheekpieces now added on only fifth chase start.
