Made a bright start to last year with a good second over C&D on New Year's Day, but his form has taken a marked downturn since and recent efforts have been poor; new headgear needs to spark a revival.

Won on soft ground at Fontwell in a hurdle race in 2021 and a 3m2f chase in 2023; however, there was an echo of that in only one (runner-up in January last year) of his eight starts for current yard.

Won a hurdle here (2m5f) and a chase for Robert Walford; best run last season when second at Exeter on reappearance in January (2m5f, soft; 125-1); disappointing after that; 10lb lower now and could go well after another break.
