Useful gelding on the flat before beginning over hurdles at Sedgefield in October, winning by two lengths at 11/10 favourite.
He has taken well to the obstacles, finishing first at Cheltenham in the Grade Two JCB Triumph Trial ahead of Perseus Way and then finishing second at the same course in the Finesse Hurdle in January, three quarters of a length behind Comfort Zone.
He’s bang in form and looks like the leading player in this race.
