Untroubled to win sole start in France and scored in good style at Kempton (2m, good) and Cheltenham (Grade 2) in first two runs for Dan Skelton; well backed into 5-1 when runner-up in the Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m1f, soft) last month, when he travelled smoothly for a long way before keeping on well to edge out Minella Study in the battle for second; has leading claims on that form and he should be unfazed by this return to a sharper track.

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Untroubled to win his sole start in France (heavy) and the same at Kempton (good) on British debut; came to the fore in tidy style on run-in for Grade 2 here (soft) seven weeks ago, going past One Horse Town having been short of room and hugged the near-side rail; should have much more to do in this race but it's hard to say just how good he might be.

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Untroubled to win his sole start in France (heavy; third since runner-up in a Grade 1) and it was a similar story when odds-on at Kempton (good), despite carrying a penalty; completely unexposed, held in high regard by his top team and he's currently 10-1 for the Triumph in March.

Easy winner of sole race in France (2m1f, heavy) in September, leading three out; has joined a top stable and looks likely to go well despite conceding weight all round.
