7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Best recent effort when second off top weight in similar event at Southwell (3m, good) on penultimate start; only 1-17 over fences but has the ability to take a serious hand. |

Took big step back in right direction and stuck to his task very well when second at Southwell (3m, good) last month but is evidently not the force of old, and it's hard to predict whether he'll build on that effort. |

Exposed chaser with a record of 5-24; below par in his three runs for Kim Bailey but has time on his side to turn things around and he should be well handicapped. |

18th Mar 2023 Soft 4m 2f 8y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Improved in a big way this season and would have been on a four-timer had he not tipped up with the race in safe-keeping at Ffos Las (3m, soft) two starts back; showed no ill effects when winning as he liked at Newcastle and it's hard to grumble with the 11lb hike; will be entering new territory trip-wise a long way from home (unraced beyond 3m) but lots to like otherwise. |

Progressive 8yo who scored at Wetherby (3m, heavy) on seasonal debut in November and looked sure to follow up before last-fence fall at Ffos Las (3m, soft) last month; has to take a 7lb rise on the chin but might still be improving; major player. |

11st 11lb |
Teenager who was placed on two of first five starts for Charlie Longsdon, more recently when third off 2lb higher at Doncaster (3m, good) last month; on the retreat when falling at Newbury last time but will be fine over today's trip and has a pretty good record at Cheltenham; shortlisted. |

25th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 86y Class 3 |

Couple of respectable efforts this season, the latest when 6l away over 3m at Doncaster; looks to have nothing in hand of his current mark but brings each-way claims. |

3rd Mar 2023 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |

13yo who was soundly beaten at Wincanton last month but that was a 0-135 and he's back down in grade here; good second at Catterick (3m1f, soft) two starts ago on his second stable start and he's also effective on good ground; could have a part to play. |

31st May 2025 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won comfortably at regular haunt Chepstow (3m6f, good) in March and was probably unlucky not to follow up there (3m2f, good; in front when sprawling on landing at final fence) last month; went up another 5lb after the latter run, though, and may not be quite so effective on this sharper track. |

Without a win since 2021 but comes here after two very respectable thirds on slow ground at Carlisle (3m) this year and will appreciate this ease in grade; probably won't be far away. |

10-28 over fences, including three 3m1f course wins; below form at Ffos Las this month, after a break, but is back on a good mark and this marathon trip will suit; must be considered. |

Won five in a row last year (good-soft), including the 3m6f Highland National at Perth; has been rather quiet in last two races, as he was beaten 21l when third over 3m5f and then was pulled up at Kelso (4m); capable but a bit risky today. |
