Made it 0-13 under rules (0-6 over fences) when below par at Sedgefield in May when last seen (bled from the nose), and best chase form has come over further; however, he's on a competitive mark and can go well fresh.
Just 1-15 over hurdles and 0-4 over fences but he ran pretty well on both starts last month (2m1f/2m2f, soft/yielding) and this Irish raider features prominently in calculations in first-time blinkers.
Two wins at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) earlier this year and he's run well in defeat on his last seven starts, most recently third at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft); in the mix if conditions suit (unproven on soft).
Won at Fakenham (2m, good) in June and ran well in defeat on his next four starts (2m, good); however, well beaten on last two outings and this 11yo is 5lb out of the handicap today; all five wins have come on good ground; wears first-time blinkers.
