Finished 13 lengths adrift in fifth in a hurdle (3400m) at Newton Abbot at his latest appearance. Sure to be competitive with so few opponents.

Returns after 10 months in the paddock. Opened the last campaign with a minor placing in a hurdle (3200m) at Kempton Park, beaten 4 lengths. Has also won when fresh in the past so he does come to hand quickly.

Four-year-old returning from a spell of eight months. Last raced when a respectable third in a flat race at Southwell All Weather over 3300m. Chance to topple to top selection as these small field can throw up surprises.
