Won readily by 6l at Stratford (2m2f, good) in July, his second handicap, and has made the frame in Class 3 races twice since (2m1f/2m5f); eased in grade today and a likely contender again.

Made it 3-11 over hurdles when scoring at Warwick (2m5f, good) in May but he's been vulnerable as favourite in last two starts; drops back in grade after a respectable fifth at Worcester (beaten around 6l) two weeks ago but he needs to find more progress back in trip.

3-10 over hurdles (2m-2m5f, good); improving 6yo who made a good start for this stable when a close fifth at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) in April and duly built on that when justifying favouritism at Warwick (2m5f) the following month, both times ridden by Megan Bevan; drop back to 2m shouldn't be too much of an issue and he's a big player off 4lb higher.

Useful Flat racer who won three consecutive novice hurdles in May-June (all on good) and was creditable fourth in Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen (2m, soft) on handicap debut in July; back in much calmer waters here and a major player.

Came good over hurdles with clearcut success at Worcester (2m, good) last month, his seventh attempt, and subsequent odds-on defeat in tactical, three-runner contest is not viewed harshly; can make his presence felt.

Form & Verdict

Two handicap hurdle wins this season, the latter gained easily by 18l from the front at Hexham (2m, good) this month; it's unwise to take that form at face value but the handicapper has been pragmatic, raising him 7lb.
