Runner-up in Irish point and showed fair level of ability when runner-up in an Ascot maiden hurdle in March. However, he offered little on his chasing debut when pulled up in handicap at Kempton (20.5f) 24 days ago and cheekpieces are reached for now.
|
Fair form over fences in France in 2020 and he got off the mark for current yard at Ffos Las (23.8f) in October. Travelled well long way when pulled up on soft ground in handicap at Newcastle (23.4f) 14 days ago and sort to bounce back under these less testing conditions.
|
No easy ride and he also arrives well below par, fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f) 23 days ago. Back over fences with something to prove.
|
Fair form over fences when second around 3m at Huntingdon and Uttoxeter in May/June. Below par fifth of 9 in handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f) 35 days ago. Worth another chance.

Forecasts
Faitque De L'Isle (6/4), Clear On Top (13/8), On The Bandwagon (3/1), Tommy Tracey (14/1)
FAITQUE DE L'ISLE shaped as though still in good form at Newcastle and under these less testing conditions can take advantage of a very good opportunity. Clear On Top appeals as the one best equipped to chase home Michael Scudamore's 7-y-o.
