Mid-field in a pair of bumpers before showing more sent hurdling when fifth of 11 in a C&D novice in September. Hasn't built on that in 2 subsequent outings but now goes handicapping with tongue strap added.

Justus (G)

Fair form when recording back-to-back wins on the Flat a year ago. Fared better then previously in handicap hurdles when fifth of 11 at Wetherby last month and has eased further in the weights, so he's not ruled out given his ability on th…

Storm The Dug (G)
Fair maiden on the Flat at up to 1m who looks to have been brought along with handicaps in mind over hurdles, never on terms but not given a hard time when fourth of 10 in a Musselburgh maiden on third outing in this sphere.

Fair winner on the Flat. Yet to score over hurdles, but produced best effort in this sphere when staying on for second in 9-runner handicap at Market Rasen 18 days ago. Can remain competitive from his current mark.
