11/8
Improved with back-to-back 3m wins at Southwell/Ludlow last spring. Ran with credit on 2 of his 3 starts in stronger company so far this winter and of interest back in calmer waters.

CHECKITOUT was strictly below his best in the Silver Cup at Ascot in December yet that run came on the back of a big effort to finish third in the Becher at Aintree and, having been given a short break since, he could be worth siding with back in calmer waters. Eaglehill may well emerge as the chief threat.
