From the family of these connections' high-class staying chaser Nacarat; still green but off the mark at the second attempt when getting up late in five-runner Exeter bumper (good) three weeks ago; doubtful that was a strong event and he'll surely want further in time but attitude was pleasing; hurdles debut.

Staying chasers in the family and he was outpaced before sticking on for third in good-ground bumper at Uttoxeter last May; didn't build on that when well held in course bumper (good to soft) in December; hurdles debut.

Third in a Hereford bumper (good to soft) and maiden hurdle (about 2m4f, good; kept on) last year; didn't build on latter effort when sixth in novice (2m, soft) back at that track in January; still early days.

Showed ability when second to a good one in Irish point at the start of the year and offered something to work on in a hood (retained) when third of 12 in Hereford bumper (good) on stable debut three weeks ago; might have a say on his introduction to hurdles.

Attracted plenty of support when winning a Haydock bumper (good) one year ago; subsequently changed hands for £100,000 but weakened on stable/hurdling debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in January; disappointing if he's not capable of better.

Won 11-runner Irish 4yo point in October on sole start in that sphere; backed into odds-on when only third of eight in Newton Abbot bumper (good) last month; that still represents the best bumper form in this field and he's respected on hurdles debut.

Beaten 1l when second of 12 in Irish point (good to yielding) in January; bought for £50,000 the following month; pedigree suggests staying chases will be his game but still of interest on hurdles debut for respected yard.

Two starts in six-runner Irish points; 6-4 when close second in April 2024 then scored by 11l at 1-2 eleven months later; sold for £75,000 four days on and has joined leading yard; hooded and tongue tied for this hurdling debut.
