Twice a winner over fences in France before joining current stable; made a low-key start to British career but latest two efforts have been promising, latest when a keeping-on third at Fontwell (2m2f, soft) in March; return to better ground could see him in a better light and he's one to consider in an open contest.

Won twice over fences in France before joining his current yard for 30,000euros; ran much better on heavy ground at Wincanton (1m7f) last time, when coming away with a subsequent winner off 5lb lower, and holds obvious claims on that.

J: Harry Kimber

T: Robert Walford

Won twice over fences in France; joined this yard for 30,000euros but he's been well held at Exeter (2m3f) and Taunton (2m) in his two runs this winter; still has low mileage but he needs to raise his game.

Won twice over fences in France; joined this yard for 30,000euros; beaten 21l into seventh on British debut at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft; 11-1) but that was after a break of 162 days and a hood now goes on; may fare better.

J: Harry Kimber

T: Robert Walford

Dual chase winner when based in France, latterly in May (2m1f, good); has a tendency to race far too freely and comes with risk attached on British debut, having changed hands for 30,000euros this summer.
