Pulled up in the Morebattle Hurdle here in February but he's had wind surgery since and this is a significant drop in grade; he's dropped down the weights and could bounce back with a big run for his in-form yard.

In touch with leaders - mistake 4 out - headway after 3 out - outpaced before 2 out - weakened approaching last (jockey said - regarding running and riding - that after the final hurdle - he at no point felt he lost any momentum or ground and kept the gelding going forward hands and heels and in his opinion obtained the best possible placing)(op 9/2 tchd 11/2)

A heavy defeat over fences in November and mid-race fall last month on sole start since, so it's hard to say what sort of form she's in; however, she's just 1lb higher than when winning over hurdles here (2m6f, good) last April and is not written off now back in this discipline.

Useful on the Flat in France, where he stayed well; returned from long absence with encouraging third on hurdle/stable debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in February before 6l win at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last month; could have potential off his opening mark, especially now up in trip.

Prix du Clos de la Barre (Conditions) (4yo+) (Turf)
Led - headed after 1 1/2f - tracked new leader - shaken up 2 1/2f out - sustained challenge as leader rallied from over 2f out - ridden to lead 1f out - stayed on
In touch towards rear - headway on outer to chase leaders 5f out - went second 3f out and soon shaken up - lost position 2 1/2f out - kept on same pace

Runner-up off this mark over C&D (good to soft) in November; however, this inconsistent 9yo has won just two of his 27 starts and was down the field at Musselburgh later in November when last seen; others appeal more.
