Modest hurdler/chaser who ended time for Pauline Robson in disappointing fashion in 2021. Has had plenty more success in points, runner-up last 3 starts.

Made a winning point debut and was still in front when coming down 3 out switched to Rules in this race 4 years ago. Limited impact in various company since, beaten a long way when third in last year's renewal.

9/2
Fair hurdler for Joseph O'Brien, though was prone to the odd mistake. Winning pointer and though he fell last time, this isn't a deep race for hunter debut.

9/4
Failed to make much of an impact sent handicapping over hurdles in 2022 and fitted with cheekpieces, he failed to meet market expectations on chase debut a year ago. Warmed up for this with a couple of wins between the flags.
