J: Danny McMenamin

T: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith

Held up; his win last Christmas came in the Lincolnshire National at Market Rasen, the middle leg of a hat-trick before his remote second in the 4m1f Eider at Newcastle; progress was resumed with London National win at Sandown (near 3m5f, good to soft; from Hung Jury) three weeks ago, well on top from approaching the final fence, and it's probably rash to think that a 4lb penalty will get to the bottom of him; should go well again.

Final leg of his hat-trick (3m-3m4f) last winter came on heavy ground at this track, before his remote second in the 4m1f Eider at Newcastle; encouraging third at Carlisle five weeks ago should set him up for a big run.

Got on a roll last winter when completing a hat-trick (3m/3m3f) before a respectable, albeit remote, second in the Eider at Newcastle (4m1f, good to soft); this race is a suitable fit but he now has to prove himself worthy of this high a mark.
