Was unplaced two back in a hurdle (3300m) at Bangor-On-Dee then again missed out in a hurdle (3300m) at Bangor-On-Dee last start. Hard to have on recent efforts.

Resumes after a break of three months. Finished off last campaign with a fifth in a hurdle (3200m) at Ludlow, beaten 17 lengths. Looks tested.

Sent out unfancied in the market when resuming and finished a 26 length fifth over 4340m at Ascot. Rates well here and should be further improved. Among the chances.

Well held at Worcester two back but improved last start with a second at the same course. Heading in right direction but needs to improve a bit more.

Has not fired this campaign, including a disappointing sixth last start in a hurdle (3300m) at Stratford-On-Avon when beaten 27 lengths. Has ability and is one of the chances.

Scored two starts back in a hurdle (3200m) at Southwell then didn't miss by much over 3200m in a hurdle (3200m) at this track. Can return to winning form.

Finished an underwhelming seventh when resuming from a spell last start in a hurdle (3200m) at this track. Not convinced after that last effort.

Not seen since finishing sixth over 1600m at Newmarket (Rowley) on October 23. Lining up over the jumps for the first time. Has switched to the Nicky Henderson yard since the last run. Could do well.
