Sole win to his name came over hurdles on New Years' Day 2019 and form since joining this yard from Henry de Bromhead has been patchy. Others preferred.

Made it third time lucky over fences on the back of a wind op at Warwick (25.4f, heavy) on return and followed up in similarly determined fashion at Ffos Las 3 weeks ago. Strong claims in hat-trick bid.

Point winner who also won bumper/novice hurdle on his first 2 starts under Rules. Hasn't kicked on from that although there was some promise on chasing debut at Wincanton on his return a few runs back.

Well held in novice hurdles to date but showed some improvement switched to a handicap when sixth of 13 at Wincanton (19.8f, soft, 11/1) on belated return 3 weeks ago. Makes chase debut. Significantly up in trip.

Runner-up in Limerick claiming hurdle on final start for Joseph O'Brien, but no promise for this yard and looks up against it again on chasing debut.

Yet to win a race of any description but went very close at Lingfield on return so must be respected back up in trip.

Remains a maiden but showed more than previously over fences when second in 4-runner handicap at Newton Abbot (25.8f) in June. Disappointing since, though.

Forecasts

Caeruleum (9/4), Percy Veering (3/1), Seymour Promise (9/2), Williamdeconqueror (11/2), Lock Out (13/2), Mormon (12/1), Fama Et Gloria (28/1)

Verdict

PERCY VEERING is on the up as a chaser and, in a thin race, he makes most appeal as he bids to complete the hat-trick. Williamdeconqueror is the only other to arrive on the back of a solid showing, so he's feared most.

  1. Percy Veering3/1
  2. Williamdeconqueror11/2
  3. Lock Out13/2
