Four-time hurdle winner but not since September 2023; proved some ability remains when close fourth at Kelso (2m5f, good) last month but is effectively 6lb higher here and two lesser efforts have followed.

Hasn't the best of win records (4-43 over hurdles), last win coming over 2m2f here in September 2023; good fourth over 2m5f here last month, but tailed off last time; 10lb out of the handicap.

Returned to form with 2l fourth of 11 behind Looking Splendid at Kelso (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; however, it's over two years since this 10yo last won and he's even further out of the handicap this afternoon.

Losing run goes back to his Kelso double in September 2023; poor claims on this season's form, beaten long way here most recently.

Won twice here (including over C&D) in 2023 but this year's pointing form is uninspiring and he has struggled back over fences and hurdles in last three starts; mark is tumbling but he has plenty to prove.
