Had been in fine form in the autumn and early winter period before the step up to graded level found him out. This more his level and he should get an easy enough lead here.
Winner of the race last year but is 13lb higher in the weights this time around. Yard struggling for winners at present (0/29 in last 90 days).
Lightly raced over hurdles and was only pipped on the post last time out at Hereford. 2lb raise for that run looks fair and he has plenty more to offer at this level.
Showed some decent form in juvenile hurdles last term but has found his second season over timber trickier. He is dropping down the weights but needs to start showing more.
Long time since he visited the winners enclosure and although he handles this ground he probably still needs a a drop in grade to get back to winning ways.
Forecasts
St Saviour (9/4), Floresco (5/2), Unison (4/1), Paddys Runner (9/2), Key To The West (6/1)
ST SAVIOUR bounced back to form at Hereford last month and if reproducing that here he's likely to take all the beating. Unison will be much more at home in this company and should get an untroubled lead whilst Paddys Runner could get involved if finding his form from last season.
1. St Saviour
2. Unison
3. Paddys Runner
