J: Jamie Hamilton

T: Ruth Jefferson

1l second to Le Beau Madrik at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in November on second hurdle start and easily justified 30-100 odds there (2m1f, good to soft) last month; open to further improvement for stable that won this in 2017 and 2020; not discounted.

Third on hurdle debut at Ayr (2m, soft) in November and again showed promise when runner-up over C&D (good to soft) later that month; sets a good standard for the rest to aim at.

Showed promise when a late faller in two Irish points in the spring and sold for £66,000 in May; encouraging start to hurdle career when third of 14 at Ayr (2m, soft) and he's in good hands to progress; respected.
