Off the mark at the fourth attempt on the Flat in France early this year; has joined champion trainer ahead of jumping debut, so warrants some consideration.
Much-improved once sent handicapping on the Flat, winning three times since June at 1m4f-1m6f including on soft ground at Nottingham last month. Could prove a useful recruit to the jumps ranks.
Some promise in Listed hurdles race at Auteuil in the spring on debut, though was pulled up there last month on sole start since. Market a likely guide on debut for the Nick Williams yard.
Nathaniel gelding, made a winning handicap debut on the Flat at Bath (1m3½f, soft; 6-1) last month; will handle conditions and possibilities going over hurdles for the first time.

Gary Moore won this race last year and can do so again with GOSHEN. He's progressed quickly to a mark of 88 on the Flat with three wins and as a half-brother to a Listed winner over hurdles should take to this game. Both Chez Hans and Manucci bring potential to this sphere while Le Grand Rocher could be interesting recruit from France for Nick Williams.
