well held in testing ground at Fontwell last time; should find at least one too good again
encouraging second on belated debut at Towcester in November; should improve for the run
unlucky to come up against some useful opponents over shorter than ideal previously this term; step up in trip should suit and on his best hurdles form should go close
capable off decent form and given trainer's current form should not be discounted lightly
better effort here over half a mile shorter on Boxing Day and with the stable among the winners on Monday not without a squeak
tends to find at least one too good but should be thereabouts again
has made a late start to his chasing career with only two starts to date over the larger obstacles; stayed on well latest and should run well again
chances on his best hurdles form but jumped erractically and to the left last time so needs to improve in that department if he is to make the grade over fences; has to be respected against these though
chances on bits of his form but tends to find at least one too good
one of the stables lesser lights; but the Henderson team is in super form so impossible to completely discount
looks outclassed in this company
