Arrives in terrific form, winning over hurdles at Listowel in late May and then scoring in a beginners' over 19.5f (good) here on his chase debut; he's a brother of Scottish National winner Captain Cody so should stay this far and his opening mark looks workable; should go well on handicap chase debut.
