Scored on the Flat last November and has made the frame in all four starts over hurdles, latest when runner-up at Perth (2m, good) last month; looks sure to find a race and unlikely to be far away.

Fair Flat racer who won over 1m4f on Polytrack last autumn; began hurdling career with respectable third of four at Fakenham (2m, good) last month and didn't run badly before weakening into fourth at Hexham more recently; holds each-way claims at least here.

Form & Verdict
Lost out by only a short head on stable/handicap hurdle debut at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in March 2025; that form puts him right in the thick of things here but he returned from a long absence with two disappointing AW runs this spring and needs to prove his wellbeing; tongue-tie added.

Went close in a handicap hurdle off a mark of 104 in March 2025 but returned from a long absence with two underwhelming AW runs; showed much more back over hurdles in a first-time tongue-tie when a staying-on third at Perth (2m, good) 12 days ago; this step back up in trip may suit; respected.

Form & Verdict
Very useful on the Flat in his prime and returned from long absence with two encouraging hurdle runs for new stable this season, latterly when close fifth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) three weeks ago; that form already gives him good claims and he could quite plausibly have a bigger run in him.

Won the Bunbury Cup in 2023; unraced beyond 1m on the Flat but seemed to stay the trip okay on jumps debut here following a long absence; however, what he achieved behind an easy winner in that small field is questionable.

Very useful on the Flat in his prime, with career highlight his 2023 Bunbury Cup success (7f; unraced beyond about 1m); absent since two below-par runs in spring 2024, though, and tricky to weigh up on stable/hurdle debut.

Regressive maiden on the Flat; outran triple-digit odds when respectable sixth (just behind Biggles) on hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) three weeks ago but needs improvement.

A regressive maiden on the Flat but has taken surprisingly well to hurdling this summer; close second to shock winner over C&D (good to firm) last month, form that was recently franked by the third, and ought to be competitive again on this handicap debut.
