after 7 months off over 1f shorter trip, proved better than ever, successful now on 4 of 5 starts, clearly worth another shot at listed company; close up, pushed along 3f out, led briefly over 2f out, chased leader final 1f, rallied to lead again final 50 yds; open to further improvement and will continue to give a good account.

shaped encouragingly after 5 months off (since an unpromising hurdling debut), this shorter trip looking a bare minimum, without the blinkers he'd worn on his final 2 starts last year as well, this likely to put him spot on for a campaign in top-grade handicaps; held up, pushed along over 3f out, kept on well over 1f out, took third well inside final 1f.
