Yet to add to his four chase wins for Philip Kirby during 2023-24 season but has made the frame on all four starts for current stable since December, most recently when third of five at Newcastle (2m4f, good) nine days ago; tried in cheekpieces today; probably won't be far away.

With Phil Kirby when left alone in a match at Kelso (3m, soft) in February 2024, that being his fourth (and most recent) win over fences; runner-up in this last year (beaten 11l) for Lizzie Quinlan; in the frame three times (Musselburgh) for Hugh Burns; competes from an easing mark, needing more.

On a two-year losing spell but looks reasonably solid, having posted two respectable efforts over C&D this winter for new yard; remains well treated on peak form.

Four chase wins in the 2023-24 season (including on soft ground); 0-11 since but ran well off this reduced mark when runner-up over C&D (good to soft) on last month's stable debut, following a break; one to consider.

Seven-time winner; failed to win in eight runs for his previous yard but was placed and he's potentially on a good mark for his first run since June; Brian Hughes is also booked.
