Sole win over hurdles at this track in July 2022 but unraced in this discipline since pulling up last October (only effort over this distance); fit from the Flat, a market watch is advised. |

Took his form up a notch when getting off the mark in 2m4f handicap hurdle at Ffos Las in May; that form has worked out well so he's very much one to consider despite taking a 6lb rise in the weights.

11st 6lb |
Displayed improvement to score at Ffos Las (2m4f, good) in May, his second handicap, and lost out only by a short head when reappearing at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month, having made a bad mistake at the penultimate flight; has to take a recent 6lb rise on the chin but can cope if the ground is slower here; good chance. |

15th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Unexposed 5yo who has had only three starts over hurdles and he caught the eye with his staying-on fourth on handicap debut at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft) last month; that was his best run so far and he's open to more progress, particularly if he can sharpen up his jumping. |

Winner from a 4lb lower mark at Southwell (2m4f, soft; first-time tongue-tie) in March; positives when returning at Worcester (2m4f, good; third of 13, beaten 5l) three-weeks ago; tongue-tie removed, and cheekpieces are fitted instead. |

Kept on well to win in first-time tongue-tie here (2m4f, soft) last month and is now 2-7 over hurdles; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive and today's longer trip may unlock more improvement. |

Cashed in a career-low mark in a Catterick 0-105 in March (2m3f, soft); this looks easier than both assignments since, though whether she's shown quite enough in defeat in either to interest here is moot. |
