Course winner over hurdles; not an instant success over fences but was evidently suited by combination of 3m1f and first-time cheekpieces when scoring at Cartmel (good) last month, and helps to give his stable a good hand in this race.

Cheekpieces were quickly back (in place of the tongue-tie from penultimate start) when fourth of six at Market Rasen 15 days ago, accomplishing a great deal more than on previous three outings; that gives him a chance and he had better form twice last autumn.
