Off the mark as a chaser at Newton Abbot (2m, good) last month, easily beating two rivals; raced too freely and succumbed to a stronger finisher when odds-on to follow up over hurdles there a week later but probably still has untapped potential over fences if he settles better here.

By no means an instant success over fences but came good in a small field here last week (good); returns to hurdles off the very same mark and he did win a maiden in this discipline.

Good-ground 2m maiden hurdle winner a year ago and he's looked a work in progress since switching to fences last season; latest 5l fourth at Ascot (2m1f, good) returned to better ground was encouraging though and he's come a long way down the weights; needs to build on that and not of of this if doing so.

It's been a ropey start over fences (last four races) but he could be happy to get away from soft ground, having won his maiden hurdle on good; better can be expected but he's risky.
