Form & Verdict
His good progress since coming back in June includes a commanding win at Newton Abbot (about 2m, good to firm) last Thursday; 6lb rise leaves him on a career-high mark but he's been on the up for over a year now and there's no reason to think his climb up the ladder has halted.

Won at Newton Abbot (2m, good to firm) in August and followed up in another small field at Stratford (2m1f, good), again under Chad Bament; in a better race here but progressive and could play another leading role.

Record of 3-11 over fences and two of those wins were gained over C&D (good/good to soft); held in small-field events in last four starts but he was only beaten 3l at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) last time and he could be dangerous back at this track; stablemate of Gore Point.

Form & Verdict

He's 4lb out of the handicap and all of his best form has come in chases, in which he's been running well since joining this yard; however, he has a lower mark to work with on his first hurdle start for this stable and it will be no surprise to see a good performance.

Sole success over fences when trained by Dan Skelton over two years ago; plenty of water under the bridge since but was still in with a chance when falling at the last fence over C&D (good to firm) in May; looks the obvious alternative should the favourite slip up.

Showed useful form without winning over hurdles for Willie Mullins; left that yard for 64,000gns having finished fourth over fences at Ballinrobe in May but it was an inauspicious stable debut when tailed off in three-runner affair here (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; needs to leave that behind tackling 3m for the first time.
