Successful for new yard at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in May and he ran well when close up there in July; however, a foray over fences didn't go well next time and he was out of contention when unseating back over hurdles last month; questioned for win purposes.

Won two of his first three starts (good to firm and good) this time last year for new yard, including over C&D; not obviously ahead of his mark since but it was a fair effort back here (hood discarded) 16 days ago and he's unlikely to be far away.
