6th Dec 2024 Soft 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Course winner in 2022 and 2023 at up to an extended 2m3f (soft); weighted to strike again at present, but goes 3f further than ever before today without shaping of late as in urgent need of a stayers' trip. |

Won gamely from the front here (2m3f, soft) last November and is back on the same mark now, but looked badly out of sorts on the Flat/over fences when last seen in June/July. |

19th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Habitual slow starter who has gained nine of her ten wins on the AW, including twice over C&D; likes to come late and needs a good pace to aim at, but despite the smallish field she might get it and is back off her last winning mark; a player if things pan out her way. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Losing run goes back two years; has mostly run over further for this yard but he's run respectably in defeat at about 1m5f of late and refitting cheekpieces could help, having run three of his best races in them. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
18th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Effective at this track; won two 1m4f handicaps on AW two winters back; three minor honours last winter and a respectable show 12 days ago after 215-day absence; assuming he can build on that, he's in the mix. |
5/1 |

5th 7 (4) |
6th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |

Won two 1m4f handicaps off lowly marks in 2021-22 AW season but may be better suited by staying trips now and was out of form when last seen last spring. |

12th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Has a patchy record and both wins have come on AW but she returned from a break with a close call at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) in June; this is a deeper race but she pulled clear with the winner last time and is only 1lb higher here; respected. |
7/2 |

2nd 6 (5) |
29th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Consecutive AW wins at 2m and 1m6f before Christmas but she didn't shine on her latest two starts and returns from a break with something to prove in her first turf handicap. |

7th 3 (2) |
16th Dec 2023 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two of his three most recent course starts, over 1m6f in May and June, and went very close off this mark at Newcastle (2m) in July; can come on for his recent return to action at Southwell; major role likely. |
6/1 |

5th 14 |
7th Dec 2023 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb
|
Seen mostly on Tapeta and has more to prove on Polytrack, as shown by latest start; 1m6f wins at Wolverhampton this May and June, with a close call at Newcastle on penultimate start, but there's a bit more for him to prove with the 105-day absence. |

Not the most consistent but has won seven times, including when getting the race in the stewards' room in an amateur riders' event over C&D in November; twice held at Wolverhampton since and may just need this after three months off. |

13th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
2m bumper win; 0-13 under Flat rules but runner-up at Southwell (1m4f) and Newcastle (1m) on two of his last three outings; tried 2m in between; beaten by just a head last time and has to be prominent in each-way calculations. |
8/1 |

2nd 3 (12) |
4th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

9st 11lb |
Sole win in AW bumper in late 2020 but he went close off a reduced mark here recently (1m4f; first-time tongue-tie) when the subject of a major gamble; key player if he can back that up on the step up to 2m; cheekpieces on. |

Placed for the first time when second of nine at Newcastle (12.5f, AW; 100-1) in February in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); beat only one home when beaten 26l here (1m4f) 20 days ago; has possibilities if able to show his best form. |

26th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Won this race under Jessica Llewellyn last year and was also on target at Ayr (1m5f, good) a few weeks later; below form on last couple of outings but returns from 82-day break on a good mark; high on the list. |
5/1 |

3rd May 2023 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Dual winner last year, including here, for today's jockey Jessica Llewellyn and is back on a handy mark; is one of the likelier winners in a first-time tongue-tie. |
