Bought for £30,000 after winning an Irish point; runner-up on hurdle debut at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) in February but he was pulled up here (2m3f, good) the following month and was reported to have an irregular heartbeat; has bit to prove after that but it's still early days and he's in good hands; stablemate of Earnest Belief.

0-6 on Flat for the Gosdens; encouraging third on hurdling/stable debut at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) in March but he failed to build on that when a remote fourth at Hexham (2m, good); has something to prove after that and this looks tough on the figures; equipment returns including a first-time tongue-tie.

Has improved with each of her three hurdle runs and her latest third of 14 at Fontwell (2m1f, good) can be marked up because she had traffic issues in the closing stages and got hit by a rival's whip; could continue to progress with experience and she's an interesting contender.
