London Masters Gaelic Football Association Handicap Chase

Useful chaser at his peak for Alan King but well beaten both starts over hurdles for this yard having been off for 38 months. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Jumping has let him down, including at Newton Abbot last time, but he did score at Perth in the summer and easier fences here should help.

All the better for belated comeback when third in handicap hurdle at Worcester last month. Much better as a chaser and is potentially on a good mark back in this sphere (1 lb below last winning mark). Could be the answer.

Maiden hurdler but showed improved form on his third start over fences when winning over C&D in May, cruising clear. Backed that up with good second at Uttoxeter despite making some errors. May do better still with headgear applied.

Mixed bag since landing a 3-runner handicap chase here a year ago, seemingly unsuited by the drop in trip when sporting first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Wincanton (15.7f, heavy) when last seen in January. Has since left Anthony Charlton. Market should reveal expectations.
