Boasting a progressive profile over hurdles, ASK ANYTHING has continued that theme over fences, off the mark in a 13-runner novice here (20f) 4 weeks ago. Open to further improvement in this sphere, he's expected to make another bold bid back down in trip. Captains Nephew and Irish Blaze are also expected to play prominent roles.
