1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
12yo who doesn't appear to be as good as he was and hasn't really threatened this season, but he's been a fair third on two of his last three starts and continues to edge down the weights; might not be far away. |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Now 12 but showed when third of six at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) in December that he retains plenty of spark; effective on good to soft ground earlier in career; mid-race unseat at Wetherby last time; possible player. |
9/2 |

1st Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Long in the tooth now but was not that far off his career-best form when third of six at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) in December, after a layoff; 2lb lower here and has a fighting chance if aided by combination of refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 3m 4f 21y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Long in the tooth now and no longer the force of old; exploited some considerable help from the handicapper when winning at Haydock (3m4f, soft) just after Christmas but was well beaten next time (albeit on heavy ground) and younger rivals have much more appealing profiles. |

11st 12lb |
Mostly struggled last season, best effort when a close second of four at Aintree (2m4f, soft) on Boxing Day but form slumped after and well held in a Class 2 at Uttoxeter (3m) in May on final start for Philip Kirby; on a good mark but needs the change of scenery to have revived him. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
12yo who is without a win since December 2023 but he ran his best race for some time when fourth at Carlisle (3m2f, soft) in November and when seventh at Ayr last time he was back up in grade; his mark continues to fall and this front-runner, who has won here, could make a bold bid. |
