Useful chaser who has a terrific strike rate since joining this stable, winning 5 times. Stiff task when well held in a Cheltenham Festival handicap last time but much respected now returning to calmer waters back over hurdles.
|
Won sole start in points last year and confirmed promise of eye-catching hurdling debut up in trip when landing 21f Warwick maiden 22 days ago, leading 3 out and driven clear. Open to further improvement.
|
Fair Flat winner who quickly opened his account over hurdles for new yard at Doncaster in January on the back of a wind op. Finished rather weakly there next time and failed to improve switched to a handicap at Fakenham latest. Up in trip.
|
Successful in a point bumper and showed promise under a positive ride when fourth in conventional one at Worcester (2m). However, well held completed start over hurdles subsequently. Off 178 days.
|
Proved a different proposition when landing a well-run maiden at Sedgefield (16.8f) in February. Similar form when second in a 4-runner affair at Newcastle but more needed up in trip.
