Showed that stamina is his strong suit on hurdling debut at Ascot (2m5f, soft) in January, battling on well to win by over 2l, and fared much better than Lon Chaney when fifth in Haydock Grade 2 (3m, good to soft) last month, despite a sketchy round of jumping; obvious contender.

Runner-up in sole bumper and won warm novice at Ascot (2m5f, soft) last month when wearing a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on hurdle debut; his talented brother Ed Keeper (same connections) was at his best over 3m and this bright prospect could play another leading role now up in trip/grade.

Brother to the same connections' useful 2m3f/3m hurdle winner Ed Keeper and made a promising start when second of five in Ffos Las bumper (good ground; 5-2) last spring; related to lots of winners over jumps and he's respected on hurdling debut after ten months off; fitted with a tongue-strap.
