10st 12lb |
Pulled up in his only attempts at chasing the last twice; five-time winning hurdler who's not on an impossible mark but would prefer softer ground. |

25th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Gained three of his five hurdle wins at this track (2m4f/2m7f) but looked out of sorts and was pulled up here (2m4f, good to soft) on recent chasing debut; should be fine over today's trip but needs to rebound. |

8th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Better again when sent handicapping on last two starts, winning by 6l in a ten-runner race at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) on latest; raised 6lb but well on top last time and could easily have more to offer. |
5/2 |

1st Feb 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Some late headway in novice company at Wetherby (2m3f, soft; 28-1; beaten 43l) last month; possibly will prove suited by this slightly longer trip on handicap debut but chasing could prove his long-term forte. |

11th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Lightly raced; took a big step forward for her new yard when keeping-on fourth of eight in steadily run 2m4f Leicester handicap and, although beaten further, she posted the same RPR when favourite at Huntingdon; all her form is on soft or heavy ground but she should be dangerous down into a seller. |

15th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Lightly raced ex-Irish maiden who took a big step forward for her new yard when keeping-on fourth of eight in steadily run 2m4f Leicester handicap six weeks ago; she appeals as the sort to do better still granted a stiffer test of stamina so merits serious consideration eased 1lb. |
11/4 |

1st Feb 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Ex-Irish; hasn't made much of an impression, albeit with some mitigating circumstances (slightly hampered last time), in two starts for Henry Oliver; others are more obvious but she shouldn't be written off just yet; easing mark. |

11yo who remains a maiden after 19 starts; did run well for a long way at Leicester (2m4f, soft) two runs back but then pulled up and now goes in blinkers. |

Narrow chase win over 2m1f at Bangor (heavy) last February; has been off and had wind surgery since well beaten over hurdles that April; this is a warm race for the grade. |

6th Apr 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Placed in one of his two handicaps over hurdles but his improvement has come as a chaser, winning at Bangor (heavy) and second at Huntingdon (soft); off the same mark as last time and shouldn't be far away. |

10th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Drew clear to win by 26l at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in December and is only 4lb higher here but was well below that form on both subsequent appearances and has become a very hard horse to predict. |

18th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 3f 49y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Ended a 13-race losing run in emphatic fashion at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in December, but blew out completely when sent off a warm favourite back there (soft) last month; a contender on that penultimate effort, but there are risks attached. |
