Ex-Alan King, with new yard this year; overall 0-7 over hurdles and 1-22 on the Flat; return to this sphere over 1m4f here (20-1) three weeks ago wasn't greatly persuasive but he is well down the weights.

Nearly won over hurdles in May but two lesser runs followed and now 0-7 in that scene, while he's only 1-21 on the Flat (for Alan King); on a useful mark but probably not as good as he was, and he's unraced at Chester.

Dual Flat winner whose best hurdling effort came with the switch to handicaps when third at Southwell (2m, good) in May, but he failed to match that form when well backed at Warwick nine days later; latest Flat run is best overlooked and he has claims if reproducing the Southwell effort.
