11st 8lb

J: Freddie Keighley

T: Martin Keighley

Thorough stayer, a dual winner over 2m7f last season, latterly on soft ground at Uttoxeter in November; dropped in class at Southwell on latest start but proved unsuited by the drop to 2m4f, and this trip is likely to find him out again.

J: Toby McCain-Mitchell

T: Alastair Ralph

Landed Alastair Ralph a fourth win from his last six runners when powering home in the debuted visor (replaced) at Stratford latest (2m6f, good); player, though he has never yet managed to follow up a win, and the penalty takes him 7lb above the mark defied in this race last year.

His wins have been at 3m2f and 3m; arrives here after good-ground seconds at Uttoxeter and Warwick, his second and third starts in blinkers; should be in the mix provided he takes to more new headgear.

Two good-ground novice wins in 2024-25 (2m, 2m5f); stamina for 2m7f still about to be put to the test when unseating at Worcester exactly a year ago, but two runs after didn't advertise his staying credentials.

Record of 3122231 over hurdles, the first four occasions at Worcester; justified favouritism in 2m5f novice contest at Warwick most recently; likely to stay this new trip and holds solid claims.

Found Class 2 race at Newton Abbot slightly too hot last time but is now only 2lb higher than when winning here (2m4f, good to soft) in June, and today's longer trip probably suits him better; one to consider.

Sole success over hurdles came here over two years ago and his best effort came when runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) last July; well beaten in three runs since, the latest on chase debut at Taunton in November; cheekpieces worn last time are left off and doesn't appeal for win purposes.
