7th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Course regular who's struggled in recent times, coming more than a stone down the weights in the past six months; is hard to recommend on recent efforts running from 9lb out of the handicap. |

Well suited by Hereford and defied higher marks twice here in February 2023; inconsistent since but this may prove one of his better days, with Sam Twiston-Davies up for first time; interesting. |

10st 8lb |
Mastered Getaway Glory up the run-in to land this contest off 1lb higher in 2024 (good to soft); present attainment level a matter of conjecture, having pulled up on sole outing since. |

10th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Gave good account when second off today's mark at Ludlow (2m4f, good to soft) in December and both runs this year have been very respectable but his career strike-rate is just 1-28, and he may better suited by right-handed tracks. |

15th Feb 2023 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Exeter winner a year ago but only fifth when attempting to land the same race recently; still 5lb above the winning mark and career record stands at 1-27; others preferred. |

1st Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Won this race last year by 13l off 5lb lower; back down in trip and back near that form when second at Ludlow (2m4f) six weeks ago on latest start, so he is back in serious calculations. |

13th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
No surprise to see headgear back on, having made a poor debut for his new yard last month; is having a first run over hurdles in 18 months too, so has it to prove. |

15th Feb 2023 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won over 3m1f here in November 2021 (for Nigel Hawke) and ran well several times after; needs a market check on debut for Evan Williams, after seven months off, though probably better at further and usual headgear missing. |

9th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Headstrong front-runner who seemed to settle much better than is often the case when winning at Hereford (2m, good) in February; pulled up both starts since, so presents a very mixed picture. |

13th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Headstrong front-runner who seemed to settle much better than is often the case when winning quite easily at Hereford (2m, good) last month; raced too freely and capitulated very tamely when tried over 2m4f at Huntingdon 18 days ago but drops back in trip here and could take some catching. |
