Delivered on earlier promise when winning 1m AW maiden for Tom Clover in January (RPR 70) but his handicap form this spring was underwhelming; changed hands for £9,000 last month and needs to be reinvigorated by this switch to hurdling.

Form figures of 22221 in maiden/novice events but his win at Southwell in January was a good opportunity and he's been well held in two handicaps this season; cheekpieces are now added back on AW but he needs more progress to defy this mark.

Runner-up on first four starts (one on good to firm) before landing the odds in a 1m AW maiden at Southwell in January; second turf start was at Yarmouth (1m, good) recently and he came last of nine, admittedly after four months off; probably needs overall improvement.

Useful Flat racer who finished in midfield in good-quality 1m handicap at Newmarket's July meeting; his stamina for hurdling is not copper-bottomed but he still features prominently in calculations here.

Well beaten on Flat debut in April and has shown only minor promise in his first two hurdle races; open to improvement if the first-time hood helps him settle here but he's not the most obvious answer.
