Substantial improvement to win novice at Nottingham in October, followed by creditable sixth of seven in French Listed race (both 1m on heavy); however, eased right down from 4f out on handicap/seasonal debut at Newmarket (1m2f, good; 22-1) three weeks ago, after which it's hard to approach him with confidence.

Three months off before showing substantial improvement to win 12-runner novice at Nottingham (1m, heavy) in October; creditable sixth of seven in French Listed race on final outing; better is needed on this handicap/seasonal debut but it looks like he'll surely stay.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: David Loughnane

Runner-up at 50-1 on debut at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in July and similar form when third at Chester (7f, good) 15 days later; absent since and set to be on slower ground for his return, but there's every chance this trip will suit and he's a leading contender if reproducing his summer promise.

Friendless in the market but shaped fairly well when second of ten in maiden at Chepstow (7f, good to firm; 50-1) two weeks ago, doing his best work late on; should improve and commands respect.
