Keeps improving with each run this campaign. Ran on last start as favourite when first in a steeplechase (4800m) at Perth. Looks a key chance and can break through here.

Finished 11th two back in a steeplechase (4000m) at Cheltenham. Atoned for that run last time to win in the G2 Silver Trophy Chase (4000m) at Haydock Park by a neck. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.

Not raced for three months. Closed off last preparation when sixth in a steeplechase (3800m) at Exeter, beaten 17 lengths. Has switched to the M E Sowersby stable. Capable and looks a top-three chance.

Sent out at long odds in a steeplechase (5000m) at Aintree last time when eased out of the race. Others rate better.

Resuming. Went for a spell after struggling last few runs including a last start pulled up in a steeplechase (3800m) at Doncaster. Hard to have on form before a break.

Impressive winner in a steeplechase (4100m) at Southwell two back then wasn't nearly as effective when fourth more recently in a steeplechase (4200m) at this track. Likely to make amends for the last-start miss.

Failed to finish at his latest appearance in a 4800m steeplechase at Market Rasen then went for a break. Confidence might be low and likely to struggle again.
