Perked up by cheekpieces in February/March; contender if still in same form after break

Only fourth of five on handicap hurdle debut in February but open to progress over fences

4-10 over fences; ended last season with two below-par runs but resumes on workable mark

Has mixed hurdling record in Britain but has French chasing experience to call upon today

No win since 2023 but current mark is workable and seasonal debut was satisfactory

Clear winner at Huntington last month but well held since; too inconsistent to rely upon

Dual chase winner in France; tends to race far too freely; looks risky on British debut
