Heavy ground provides an excuse for latest effort; has hinted at retaining ability otherwise since returning from lengthy layoff; very attractively treated on historical data, which includes four Grade 2 wins (bumper/hurdles/fences); one to consider.

Smart hurder/chaser in his prime; absent more than two years after Grade 2 novice chase win in autumn 2023 but returned with two pretty good efforts this season (2m5f/3m) and has possibiites in his first veterans' chase; copes well with soft ground; unraced on heavy.

Dual Grade 2 hurdle winner in the 2022-23 season and he won the Grade 2 Rising Stars novice chase at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) in November 2023; absent for two years after but offered enough when 8l fourth to The Jukebox Man and recent Ascot winner Iroko in graduation event at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft) five weeks ago to suggest he retains all of his ability.

T: Paul Nicholls

Dual Grade 2 hurdle winner in the 2022-23 season and he won the Grade 2 Rising Stars novice chase at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) when last seen in November in 2023; still has some potential but he meets some promising younger types after over two years on the sidelines.
