Thrice-raced winner on Flat for Joseph Patrick O'Brien. Fair form over hurdles for current yard, landing odds (1/2) in 7-runner juvenile at Taunton (16.5f, heavy) in March. Interesting back on the level as he makes handicap debut.

Made it back-to-back wins when scoring in handicap at Nottingham in August. 3/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (18f, good) 25 days ago. Could bounce back as he returns to this shorter trip.

Off the mark at Nottingham in July. Again shaped better than result when fifth of 10 in handicap at Chester (14.4f, soft, 4/1) 32 days ago, denied a run 2f out. Could still have more to offer.

Some encouragement on debut but has gone backwards in 2 starts since, eighth of 9 in minor event at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy, 100/1) 74 days ago (subsequently gelded). Significantly up in trip as he makes handicap debut.

TAJANIS showed improved form upped in trip and in a change of headgear when getting off the mark at Yarmouth last month, finding plenty for pressure, and he can score again now that he's up and running. Order of Malta has shaped as if he could have more to offer in handicaps and enters calculations, while Spartan Army is interesting back on the Flat.
