Best on good ground as he showed when running away with the Sussex Champion Hurdle at Plumpton in April; however, that came at a cost to the tune of 10lb and he failed to fire behind Moon Chime in the Swinton; others might be better in here.

4-6 on good ground over hurdles, notching another personal best when returning from a break to win readily at Plumpton (2m; 15-2) last month; a 10lb rise demands further improvement but he's thriving and should encounter suitable conditions again.

Record of 2-5 over hurdles and he was runner-up behind subsequent Supreme winner Old Park Star at Kempton (2m, good) in November; finished a well-held fourth of 15 at Newbury in February but that was a major handicap and not many got involved in the testing conditions; sets a clear standard back in much calmer waters and his last win was over C&D; strong contender.

Unexposed novice hurdler who posted a good effort behind the Supreme favourite on penultimate start; comfortably justified favouritism at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) latest, taking overall record to 4-7; this handicap debutant could be well treated and his stable has landed this race three times; interesting.

Progressive for new stable since the autumn, collecting four wins (2m-2m1f, good-heavy) along the way; below form when tried over 2m5f last week (no headgear) but was fourth in last month's Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces; refitted today) and is now 2lb lower.

Interesting he was still staying on into fourth (about 23l ahead of Letterston Lily) at the end of a generously run Summer Hurdle last time, though remains untried beyond a sharp 2m4f; 7lb higher mark than for June's easy 2m1f win here leaves him with almost nothing in hand.
