11st 6lb

J: Dylan Johnston

T: Gary Rutherford

Has taken well to fences, winning by 11l here on his chase debut (good) before finishing a clear second (again over C&D) last time; went up 9lb for his win and another 4lb for latest run but is one with a chance.

Returned from break with career-best performance this month, drawing clear to win by 11l over C&D (good) on chasing debut; 9lb higher in a higher-grade race today but could easily have more to offer over fences.

J: Dylan Johnston

T: Gary Rutherford

Won two in a row over hurdles in October (2m5f/2m4f, good; including here) and ran pretty well when third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in November; unsuited by soft ground when below par at Musselburgh in December; could have a part to play if taking to fences at the first attempt.

Won at Kelso (2m5f, good) and Carlisle (2m4f, good) in October; only third when favourite off this 5lb higher mark on good to soft at Newcastle (2m4f) since; could go well but rain would be a negative.

Largely consistent last season and launched current campaign with two good-ground wins last month (2m5f/2m4f); evidently in very good nick but will have something to prove if the ground is slower than good to soft.
