4/6

Likeable sort who completed a hat-trick in Cheltenham Grade 2 a year ago and several pretty useful efforts in defeat after at up to 20.5f. Winning Irish pointer and a quick jumper over hurdles so really should take to chasing.

5/4

Placed in an Irish point and quickly built up a good record over hurdles, looking more polished than previously when landing Grade 1 Premier Novice at Kelso (18f) in March. Found out in better company a month later but he has the physique for chasing.

Forecasts

Lookaway (4/6), Personal Ambition (5/4)

There wasn't a massive amount between LOOKAWAY and Personal Ambition as hurdlers and both possess the physique to excel over the larger obstacles this term. The former won his point and was notably slick over timber, which tilts the scales his way.
