Form & Verdict
0-13; well treated on his best hurdles form and stays 3m2f in that sphere; well below par on his last three starts, either side of a break; half-brother won over fences, so may take to this discipline but he has that to prove on his chase debut.

Won chase debut at Sedgefield (2m5f, good; from 2lb lower) in April but has posted form figures of PUP since; it's difficult to know what to expect, but he does revert to hurdles at an appropriate level and has run well here (second and third) in the past.

Sole Flat win (31 attempts) was debut in 2020; had two hurdle wins (2m5f and 2m4f) in 2025 and there have been bits of chase form in recent months; visor returning instead of blinkers might possibly help, but there are more likely candidates.
