11st 12lb |
Has a good record here but all his best days have been over shorter distances and, now an 11yo, he's leaving it late to prove his worth over this far. |

11st 12lb |
Safely held on all three outings this year but heavy ground would not have been in his favour on last two occasions; has become well handicapped and is of interest now back on a quicker surface. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Thorough stayer who made all at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in February and rebounded from a lesser effort when third at Perth (3m, good) last month; has never run here before but is sure to be suited by this move back up in trip. |
6/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |

Disappointing at Haydock last time (3m1f, good) but successful at Doncaster before that (3m, good to soft); each-way chance. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 125y Class 3 |

Veteran who retains enthusiasm, and he jumped well and made all at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in February, but he's back up 6lb and probably in a stronger race here. |

11st 11lb |
raced wide, towards rear, not fluent 2nd, steady headway going easily and prominent before 8th, ridden and outpaced after 3 out, weakened before 2 out (trainer could offer no explanation for the poor form shown; vet reported that a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities) |

15th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 115y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Now 7lb lower than when winning at Newcastle last November but this 11yo has struggled to get competitive since; needs to raise his game. |

4th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |

Not an easy one to predict nowadays but returned from break with fairly encouraging run at Wetherby last month and is now 3lb lower than when making all at Newcastle (2m4f, soft) just under a year ago. |
