Well held in 2 bumpers and little solid form over hurdles. Opening mark looks on the high side now sent chasing.
|
Placed on 7 of his last 8 starts over fences without doing much wrong, including when runner-up at Fakenham both starts for this yard. Should remain competitive.
|
Proved well suited by the strong pace when finally off the mark at Fakenham last month under this rider. Better form when runner-up at Leicester next 2 starts, including 5 days ago. Big shout off same mark if this doesn't come too soon.
|
Returned lame at Ludlow but showed no ill effects when good second at Hereford 18 days ago and should be on the premises again.
|
Winner of first 2 starts in this sphere in March/April 2021 and stopped the slide when third at Huntingdon (23.6f, good to soft) in December. Needs to build on that now.
|
Successful sole start in Irish points. Made much more impact than previously over hurdles when runner-up under a positive ride at Fakenham. However, got no further than the third at Leicester on chase debut last month (sent off favourite).
|
Back-to-back winner over C&D this time last year but just the one decent effort this season (third over C&D penultimate start). Return to this track a plus at least.

Forecasts
Cloudy Wednesday (2/1), Ya Know Yaseff (10/3), On The Platform (7/2), Counteract (6/1), Le Tueur (15/2), Leskinfere (14/1), Phil The Sock (22/1)
CLOUDY WEDNESDAY is on the upgrade over fences and looks the obvious one having finished runner-up off the same mark in a better race than this at Leicester on Tuesday. On The Platform has a race in him off his current mark so is feared most ahead of the consistent Le Tueur.
