Half-brother to a couple of winners and was much improved to make it second time lucky over timber at Wincanton 4 weeks ago. Open to further progress so one to consider here.

Pulled up in sole point but showed ability switched to a bumper when runner-up at Sedgefield (16.8f). Filled same spot in a tongue strap on Taunton hurdle debut but possibly amiss since. Had wind op.
|
Produced a promising first effort amidst greenness when fourth behind Monviel at Wincanton 4 weeks ago, noted doing his best work finish. Will be suited by further in time and is entitled to progress.
|
Champs Elysees gelding who overcame the run of the race to make a winning start to his career in a Worcester bumper back in August. Market can guide expectations ahead of his hurdling debut.
|
In the frame on both appearances in points and just a glimmer of promise when fourth of 10 in novice hurdle (6/1) at Chepstow (16f, soft) last month. Probably one for later on over further.

Forecasts
Monviel (15/8), Hidor De Bersy (2/1), Learntalot (9/4), Braveheart (4/1), Operation Manna (11/2), Twilight Glory (11/1)
MONVIEL opened his account at Wincanton 4 weeks ago with a much-improved effort and can follow up. Learntalot, who was a few places behind Philip Hobbs's charge that day, is entitled to progress from that initial effort.
