Five-time Flat winner but last two were over 2m at Catterick in May 2024; well handicapped on old form but has mixed record since switched to hurdling in his last seven starts; returns after a break but his tactical speed will be tested back in this sphere and others are preferred.

0-16, he has shown bits of form when placed but his latest effort when eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton (1m6f) three weeks ago following a break was discouraging; his mark continues to fall but hard to recommend for win purposes.

8yo who has won eight races overall and is 5-37 on turf, with his latest win last August off 7lb higher than today; recent fourth here was a respectable return to turf, after 107 days off, so he is one to consider.

Just one win from his 22 starts and beaten 6l when fourth in first-time visor (retained) at Ayr (1m5f, soft) last Friday; however, that trip-and-ground combination may have stretched his stamina and two starts ago he was short-headed by Uncle Liam here (1m4f, good); he's not discounted.
