Came good over hurdles at 14th attempt, with clear success at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in March; should be okay back at 2m on this stiff track but 7lb rise demands more from him. |

11st 8lb |
Placed in a Hexham bumper (beaten 19l) in November; yet to show a massive amount over hurdles (0-3), though was staying on over an inadequate 2m at Kelso (novice; 66-1, beaten 32l) latest; back to a more suitable trip for handicap debut. |

He's displayed some ability but not enough to suggest he'll be posing a threat today; will be of greater interest when moving into handicaps. |

His bumper debut third at Hexham (2m, good to soft) wasn't devoid of promise but lesser runs have followed in a bumper at Carlisle (soft) and a novice hurdle over this C&D (good). |

It's now 11 outings since his last success but he's been lightly raced this term and comes here on the back of a good third of 15 in 2m4f Newcastle handicap hurdle 18 days ago; can make his presence felt off the same mark. |

Sole win from a similar mark at Carlisle (3m) in November 2024; runner-up over C&D latest, one of many solid efforts at this track (22242P2); still in front - looking the likeliest winner - in void race over C&D two-years ago; entitled to respect. |

Maiden; fine second to a subsequent three-time winner in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle in April 2025 (3m1f, good); hasn't done as well since, although not disgraced when sixth on chase debut at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good to soft); tongue-tie now tried; chance back up in trip. |

Fourth to Parish Star over C&D (heavy; beaten 13l) in January and went closer (runner-up) in a five-runner affair at Musselburgh subsequently; usual 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retains the ride; can added cheekpieces make a difference? |

Poor form in bumpers and over hurdles, and his jumping wasn't great when third on recent chase debut at Sedgefield (2m, good); from out of the handicap he's 4lb higher than last time but there was some promise in that performance and he's open to further improvement if finding greater fluency. |
