11/1

Comment: Placed in two Irish maiden hurdles for Gordon Elliott in April (2m1f/2m) and went close on stable debut at Bangor (2m, good) in May but two lesser efforts have followed and he tackles much stronger opposition on this handicap debut.

Comment: Struck form this spring, winning on good ground at Stratford (2m) and here (2m2f); lost out only narrowly to another progressive rival over C&D (good) last month and needs to be taken very seriously in current mood.

Comment: Opened account with fairly comfortable success at Taunton (2m7f, good to firm) in April, his seventh chase start; only 3lb higher here but his next two runs were slightly disappointing; needs to kick on again.
