Remains with one standout effort on the Flat for Hugo Palmer and no impact on only 2 starts for his current yard, off a further 22 months before finishing well held at Warwick on hurdling debut 37 days ago.

Showed a bit more, in first-time hood, when seventh of 13 in bumper (66/1) at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Warrants respect on hurdles bow.

Returned to form, in first-time blinkers, when fourth of 10 in novice hurdle (5/2) at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 12 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Below par on Flat this year but capable of fair form at best and is worth monitoring in the market on hurdles debut.

Far from disgraced when ninth of 13 in bumper at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) on NH debut 39 days ago. More required to figure on hurdles bow here, however.
