10st 7lb |
Fell on his first two attempts over fences, but had the race at his mercy at Newton Abbot (3m2f, soft; from 3lb higher) on the second occasion; has failed to sparkle since - usually labouring in rear - although there was a glimmer of spark at Fakenham over Easter. |

Unlucky not to open his account at Newton Abbot (3m2f, soft) just under a year ago and ran well when fourth at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day, after a layoff, but was struggling from fairly early stage at Chepstow in January and can't be supported with any confidence after that. |

Belatedly came good over hurdles with 17l success here (2m5f, good) in July, her 12th attempt, and has made the frame twice over 3m2f since; drops back in trip for today's chasing debut and has possibilities if she jumps soundly; handles good to soft ground but is unraced on anything worse. |

Hasn't been a model of consistency but it was her second run back from an absence (and wind surgery) when strolling home at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) and she stays 3m (unraced beyond it); handicapper asks a question with a 10lb rise but it could be onwards and upwards. |

Seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when placed in soft-ground chase in February (good ground also suits), but two lesser efforts followed towards the end of last season (hurdle/chase) and it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood on this first start in four months.
