★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos PU 18 Apr Ayr

    Settled towards the back - serious blunder at the 4th - lost touch after the 23rd and pulled up before two out

  • Pos 2 10 Mar Cheltenham

    Settled in the back group - nudged into contention from the 19th - much ground to make up three out - progressive after that fence and third two out - moved to second before the last - kept on the run-in - no answer to the winner and beaten 5½ lengths

  • Pos 1 13 Feb Kelso

    Shared front spot early - hit the front before 3rd fence and jumped awkwardly there - travelling strongest 2 out - asked for effort and edged away - dipped slightly after last but held on to win

  • Pos 4 16 Jan Windsor

    Handy early - hit an obstacle 3rd and slipped to the back - urged into contention before 10th - held up with much ground to make before 4 out - made late progress before the last - finished well to take fourth
