Only fifth over hurdles when favourite for stable debut but could have chasing potential

Second over hurdles two starts ago but too inconsistent to rely upon; chase debut

Ran big race in defeat when back over fences last month; 2lb rise looks manageable

Off workable mark if judged on hurdling form but lacked fluency in his first two chases

Made low-key stable debut last month but may have needed the run; eased in grade

Back in fairly good form two runs ago but safely held on latest outing; others look safer

Pulled up after bad jumping error last week; earlier form gives him an each-way shout
