Resumed after a 173-day spell last start with a sound second on the flat at Salisbury over 2800m, beaten a head. Reliable jumper with four wins and three minor placings from nine starts over the obstacles. Boasts strong second-up stats.

Returns after six months in the paddock. Opened the last campaign with a minor placing in a hurdle (3200m) at Sandown Park, beaten 2.5 lengths. Has also won when fresh in the past so she does come to hand quickly.

Returned from a layoff last time out in a hurdle (3200m) at Market Rasen, finishing seventh when partnered by today's jockey Brian Hughes. Fitter and sure to improve sharply.

Racing well since scoring three starts ago. Placed two runs back in a hurdle (4123m) at Sligo then filled a minor prize again last time in a hurdle (4425m) at Ballinrobe, beaten half a length. Prefer to see him do a bit more.

Two runs this prep have been moderate. Opened with an unplaced effort in a flat race at Carlisle then clocked-in sixth last time in the G2 Persian War Novice's Hurdle (3900m) at Chepstow. Likely to figure on his best form.

Returned from a layoff last time out in the G2 Persian War Novice's Hurdle (3900m) at Chepstow finishing fourth when partnered by this rider Harry Skelton. Before that first-up run he went to the Dan Skelton yard. May improve.

Not raced for seven months. Closed off last preparation when tenth in a hurdle (3300m) at Bangor-On-Dee, beaten 95 lengths. Has ability but tested in this line-up.
