The point-to-point winner was placed twice in Grade 2 company including over this trip before enjoying his finest hour to date when recording a 33/1 surprise in the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Gordon Elliott also saddles Will Do who won twice in staying hurdles last year and has been placed on both chase starts over 2m2f at Galway this term.
