Campaigned with regularity over 2m7½f on soft to heavy ground; wasn't at his best at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve, but surely the one to beat on the basis of his excellent third to Potters Corner at Chepstow prior.
Cost £55,000 in February 2018; hasn't kicked on positively from a second-placed finish to Largy Prospect at Ayr (2m4½f, soft) last March; was struggling from the home turn in a maiden at that same track 43 days ago.
Cost €110,000 out of the Irish point-to-point scene (April 2018); game winner of a Kelso bumper (2m, heavy) on debut for Rose Dobbin; potentially better than he demonstrated on hurdles debut at this track (fifth).
Forecasts
Accordingtogino (30/100), Le Cheval Noir (4/1), Bluefortytwo (10/1)
Rose Dobbin's Le Cheval Noir is potentially better than he demonstrated on hurdles debut here (2m5½f, soft) in early December, although he does need to evidence that fact. Conversely, it's fair to say that Bluefortytwo isn't exactly progressing for James Ewart. Therefore, this race provides Dan Skelton's ACCORDINGTOGINO with the perfect opportunity to break his maiden status over hurdles. His close third to the subsequent Welsh Grand National scorer Potters Corner is the standout piece of form on offer.
