Point winner who built upon the promise shown in novice hurdles last season for the Hobbs/White yard when keeping on for second on last month's chase and stable debut in Newcastle handicap (2m4f, good to soft; stewards enquired into running and riding); open to further improvement; key player.
Record of 121 since wearing the tongue-tie, proving suited by the step back up in trip at Catterick (2m3f, good) last time; has also won on soft/good to soft; clearly progressive and respected up 4lb for last time.
Well beaten over hurdles on yard debut at Carlisle last month; however, he may have needed the run and is on a handy mark on last season's best form, including a near-miss over hurdles at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft) and a staying-on third over fences at Ayr (2m, soft); contender if back on song.
Point winner (3m, good to yielding) who won on his hurdle debut at Ludlow (2m, soft) in February 2024 and could be suited by this switch to fences; however, following a long absence he's been soundly beaten in two handicap hurdles this autumn and needs to leave those efforts well behind.
