10st 12lb

J: Sean Houlihan

T: Philip Hobbs & Johnson White

Chasing on last four starts, winning on good ground at Taunton (2m7f) on first and latest; overcame interference to oblige in eventually clearcut fashion in a small field on latest, so surely remains capable of better (up another 3lb since) and that suggested he could stay beyond 3m; this is his first attempt to do that and this 6yo ran respectably on soft ground on penultimate start.

Got off the mark at the first time in this sphere over C&D in December and has shaped well both runs since, faring best of those coming from off the pace when fourth of 11 in 3m Ascot handicap in January; that race has worked out really well (three subsequent winners) so he's a big player eased 1lb.

Has taken his form to a new level since upped in trip and switched to chasing, winning easily at Taunton (2m7f) then creditable third at Kempton (3m), both on good ground; still unexposed in this sphere and at this sort of distance; remains of interest.

11st 6lb

J: Sean Houlihan

T: Philip Hobbs & Johnson White

Had fairly routine handicap hurdle form following a novice win at Exeter last December but he proved an exuberant convert to fences when making some of the running on his recent chase debut at Taunton on the step up to 2m7f (good); up 8lb for that win and in a stronger race here but he can do better yet.

Exeter novice hurdle winner over 2m on soft a year ago; beaten in four handicaps but second at Fontwell (2m3f) before midfield at Cheltenham (2m5f); dam was a Listed winner over fences, so this could be more his game.
