0-5 over hurdles but straight off the mark over fences when justifying support at Southwell (2m4f, good) in April and better still when a narrow second off 6lb higher at Warwick 17 days ago (good; winner has gone in again since); unlikely we've seen the best of him yet and he's a big player off the 3lb rise, but ground softer than good may be a worry.
