Three-time Flat winner has run well in defeat in maiden hurdles this year, including over C&D; below form in an Aintree handicap last time, but this isn't as competitive and he is one to consider.

Won over hurdles and fences in Britain on soft/heavy; standout effort for current yard came over here last month when coming home strongly to be beaten a nose in 2m5f handicap hurdle, after being a bit short of room and having to be switched in closing stages; up 3lb for that but should go well.
