Jumped well when making a winning chasing debut at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) in November (runner-up a winner over hurdles since); no match for the impressive winner Knight In Dubai at Doncaster subsequently.

10/11
A very capable hurdler (137-rated); thrashed Cornerstone Lad by 19L at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December 2017; creditable third to Good Boy Bobby and Ravenhill Road on seasonal reappearance (chasing debut) at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) seven weeks ago.

12/1
Beat former stablemate Ringa Ding Dong by 8L in a 2m5f novices' hurdle at Wincanton (good) in May 2018; less effective on both subsequent starts for Paul Nicholls; reappears from a 433-day absence over fences on debut for Sandy Thomson.

Forecasts

Albert's Back (10/11), Schiehallion Munro (6/5), Stradivarius Davis (12/1)

14:35 Newcastle - 4 January 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Stradivarius Davis has plenty to find on chasing/stable debut (returning from a 433-day absence) so a straightforward tussle should ensue between Schiehallion Munro and ALBERT'S BACK. The selection was a useful (if lightly raced) hurdler who is fancied to build upon an encouraging chasing debut third to Good Boy Bobby and Ravenshill Road at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) seven weeks ago. He should take full advantage of the 6lb that he receives from the Catterick winner.
  1. Albert's Back
  2. Schiehallion Munro
  3. Stradivarius Davis
