Fairly useful hurdler who stepped up on his reappearance effort to win 6-runner maiden at Haydock (22.8f, heavy) in December, suited by increase in trip. This is harder under a penalty.

Hadn't set the world alight in bumpers but is built and bred for jumping and looked a good prospect in making a winning hurdling bow after 11 months off at Wincanton (21.4f). Sure to progress.

Dual bumper winner who improved to get off the mark over hurdles in 6-runner novice at Uttoxeter (19.9f) 36 days ago, grinding it out back down in trip. Open to further improvement.

Irish point winner who overcame greenness to land 19.7f Wetherby novice hurdle with plenty in hand on return. Similar form in defeat since, including in Sandown Grade 2 last time. Well respected.

9/2
Out of a 17f-21f hurdle/chase winner and shaped with promise when runner-up in a 2½m Ffos Las maiden on debut. Failed to improve when third in a similar event at Exeter, but remains with potential.
