Dual Listed winner on the Flat in Germany (1m2f/1m4f); didn't help his cause on what proved a disappointing hurdles debut, when fractious before the off; put up a significantly better effort when taken down early and hooded at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) latest; should be thereabouts.

Smart Flat-racer when trained in Germany, winning two Listed races (1m4f/1m2f); disappointing favourite when well-held fifth on recent stable/hurdle debut at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) but became worked up in the preliminaries there; ought to be capable of much better if the first-time hood helps him to relax here. |

Second in an Irish point; beaten under 8l in an Ascot bumper (good) on his rules debut 13 months ago; creditable effort when third in a Plumpton maiden on his hurdles debut (2m, soft; first-time tongue-tie) in April; should do better over further but may still have a say in this.

Runner-up in an Irish point and he's shown promise in his three runs under rules, including a clear second in a novice hurdle at Taunton (2m, good to soft) on his recent return after another break; looks interesting now switched to a handicap and he's bred to be better than this opening mark. |
