Much improved to make a winning handicap debut at Hereford (2m, good to soft) 13 days ago, forging clear. Likely to go well again.

6/1
C&D maiden winner last March. Switched to fences to make a winning handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) on reappearance in November but has disappointed on both outings since (remote last of 3 latterly). Needs a combination of first-time blinkers and a return to hurdles to spark a revival.

Runner-up on first of 2 outings in bumpers and fair form over hurdles, including fourth on C&D handicap debut with a hood added (retained) 32 days ago. An unexposed profile provides hope that he can build on that.

Versatile performer in Ireland for Kevin Michael Smith but pulled up in 21.5f course handicap on last month's first outing for a new yard. Now drops back in trip with the cheekpieces he wore on that occasion discarded.

12/1
Fourth in a pair of juvenile hurdles for Emmet Mullins in Ireland at the end of 2025 but well beaten in a Taunton maiden on his first outing for Fergal O'Brien. Still early days but his opening handicap mark isn't obviously generous.
