Offered more on second start back from wind surgery when 7l third at Bangor (2m4f, good) last month off 4lb higher; needs more but still early days for this stable and has become well treated on peak Irish form.

Very well handicapped on pick of his Irish form but finished down the field over hurdles on stable debut in July and ought to have coped a bit better with the heavy ground when tailed off in recent Cartmel chase.

Low-mileage 5yo who came second in two handicap hurdles in the spring (2m2f/2m4f); connections are evidently very keen to switch him to fences, and his 6l Irish point win in 2023 bodes very well for his chasing prospects.

Stepped up for the switch to a handicap and longer trip (nearer 2m4f including rail movements) at Stratford latest, albeit outpaced by a bigger-priced stablemate late; 4lb rise without winning isn't ideal, but further additional yardage looks all to the good (point scorer over further).

Came clear in useful Bangor bumper (good to soft) in autumn 2022; progressive over hurdles since returning from a year off, making a successful quick switch to handicap company over 2m4f at Southwell (good to soft) nine days ago; that was a conditional jockeys' event so she escapes a penalty; strong claims.

Form & Verdict

Modest in 2m hurdles but relished the step up in trip when making a winning chase debut over 2m5f at Tramore in April 2023 but failed to back that up when well beaten on handicap debut in November; plenty to prove on stable debut back from an absence.

2-4 since switched to fences this spring and posted an improved effort in a Class 3 off this mark when runner-up at Perth (2m4f, good to firm) in June; has run well after a break in the past and looks the stable's first choice based on jockey bookings; obvious claims.

0-5 over hurdles but straight off the mark over fences when justifying support at Southwell (2m4f, good) in April and better still when a narrow second off 6lb higher at Warwick 17 days ago (good; winner has gone in again since); unlikely we've seen the best of him yet and he's a big player off the 3lb rise, but ground softer than good may be a worry.

Winning start to handicap/chase career for Harry Whittington at Plumpton (2m3f, soft) in December 2022 but has become very disappointing since, pulling up on both starts for this stable; hard to recommend.

Fair effort when second at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft) in March prior to disappointing at Exeter on heavy ground in April; looked as though he'd improve for the run on reappearance but more still needed to make a winning start over fences here.

Largely progressive over hurdles, winning one of five starts (2m, good to soft) and taking a step forward when switched to handicaps, latest off 1lb lower when fourth at Chepstow in April; likely type for fences and shouldn't be far away back from a break if staying this longer trip.
