Bumper form makes for good reading and he won easily on his hurdling debut

Disqualified from first over C&D three months ago; can clearly win a race of this nature

First or second in all his bumpers; Flat bred and may lack the potential of some in here

In a top yard but has been weak in the betting for both his runs and shown very little

Tailed off at Fontwell two weeks ago and has no realistic form claims in this company
NR	Ski Lodge Bay J:TBC T:Alan King	J: T:Alan King	162	—	/21-71	-	122	101	107d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Bumper winner; won his maiden over 3m but doesn't look short of pace
