Brought along gradually in 2018/19 but no impact in 4 handicaps last term. Back down in trip/in maiden company but must show more to feature after 10 months off.

Timeform
Successful both completed starts in Irish points but more one for the longer term under Rules based on his pair of efforts over hurdles recently.

9/1
Signs of ability on first 2 starts but he's likely to come into his own when faced with a stiffer test further down the line. Should make a better jumper and one to keep an eye on in the betting.

Shaped as if needing experience in a bumper and stepped up on that in a hood when fifth of 10 in novice hurdle at Lingfield (16f, heavy) on hurdles bow 21 days ago, needing stiffer test. Up in trip.

€54,000 Flemensfirth gelding who showed a bit in a pair of bumpers in 2018/19 and badly needed the outing on hurdles bow 13 months ago.

Only finisher when gaining his point win and well held in Aintree bumper (for Peter Fahey) in May 2919. No impact on hurdles bow earlier this month and looks one for the longer term.

Forecasts

Keep Rolling (10/11), Supervisor (4/1), My Last Oscar (5/1), Lockdown Leader (17/2), Mozzaro (9/1), Movethechains (20/1), Tom O'Roughley (33/1), Intheboriscamp (40/1), Beau Haze (80/1), Foxy Singer (100/1), Sweet Fab's (150/1), Dysania (200/1), Wessington Park (250/1)

Verdict

This looks to revolve around KEEP ROLLING, who produced his best effort to date over hurdles when third at Southwell last December and holds leading claims if ready to roll on return. My Last Oscar ended up finishing closer than seemed likely sent hurdling last month so he's feared most, ahead of Mozzaro and Lockdown Leader.

  1. KEEP ROLLING (IRE)
  2. MY LAST OSCAR (IRE)
  3. MOZZARO (IRE)
