Second three times since his win in June and may still be on the upgrade; big player

2m1f course winner in August but held since; needs to kick on again

Second over C&D on both hurdling starts but probably needs improvement on handicap debut

Well below best this year but last month's run was a big step back in the right direction
6	Sir Rock Bay J:Kevin Brogan T:Toby Lawes	J:Kevin Brogan T:Toby Lawes	164	—	35112-	101	99	87	207d	—	—	+23	33	2.50/1	10/1 9%

Makes stable debut after one-year absence but good market support will need to be heeded
1	Baddesley Bay J:Rex Dingle T:Chris Gordon	J:Rex Dingle T:Chris Gordon	168	—	13691-	105	106	85	207d	—	—	+22	28.3	4.50/1	18/1 5%

Not seen since clearcut Taunton win in 2022 but remains unexposed; market may guide
