Has returned to his best since joining Sophie Leech, making it 2 wins from 2 starts (both at this C&D) for his current yard with an emphatic success last month. Rise in the weights might not be enough to prevent him from scoring again.

Thrived with a hood applied last year, winning 3 times at this course as he went on to land a 5-timer. Bounced back from a lesser effort this season when runner-up here (17f) in July and he's not taken lightly at this venue.

Showed improved form when scoring on chase debut at Worcester last summer and added to his tally after 8 months off at Huntingdon (16.5f) in May. Found only an improving type too strong at Market Rasen (17.2f) last time and he can give another good account.

Having had a second breathing operation, made a winning return at this C&D in May and went close to following up here (17f) on her next start. However, bounce back now called for having found it tougher over that trip last month.

Enjoyed a productive spell towards the end of his 2022/23 campaign, making it 3 wins from 4 starts when successful at Fakenham (16.3f) in February. However, pulled up on his last 2 outings, the latest after 6 months off at Market Rasen 12 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.
