10st 12lb |
Four-time hurdle winner; returned from 688-day absence with low-key run on soft ground in April and absent for another six months since; ought to be better suited by the quicker conditions here but her current ability is hard to gauge. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
He can have his off days but he's 4-12 over hurdles and he ran well to be fourth in a Pertemps qualifier over C&D before dropping out in the final furlong after racing up with the pace; he was always likely to prove a sitting duck when it mattered at Cheltenham and better can be expected here. |

10st 10lb |
Two wins last winter, latterly at Sandown (extended 2m7f, heavy; by 8l making all); pulled up on next two starts, with 322 days off in between, but fourth in the Haydock qualifier last month was a big step back in the right direction; now needs to make another but he's only 1lb higher than at Sandown. |

Low-mileage 9yo; won at Aintree (soft) and Sandown (heavy; made all for an 8l verdict) last winter but pulled up at Uttoxeter on final start and suffered a similar fate on his Sandown reappearance a fortnight ago; needs to have come on a lot in a short time. |

13th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Well beaten on handicap debut in March but bounced back quickly to beat very progressive rival by 7l at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last month; 8lb higher in a stronger race but open to further improvement. |

28th Apr 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Started his hurdling career with two promising placed efforts (2m3f/2m4f, good to soft) but he was tailed off on his handicap debut over C&D (11-2) last month; still has potential but this is a recovery mission after that last run. |

On a long losing run but she wasn't discredited on the back of wind surgery when fourth of six in 2m3f Warwick handicap 60 days ago; possibilities off a falling mark. |

Runner-up at Ludlow last February and now 8lb lower; however, this 10yo has struggled to get competitive since; has had wind surgery since last time, which needs to make a big difference. |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Rallied to win at Newbury (extended 2m6f, good to soft; 4lb higher today) in November after slow jump at the final fence; nothing of that ilk before or since and while he did plug on for seventh in the 3m2f Kim Muir at Cheltenham last time, this much longer trip does not significantly boost his prospects. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Has an in-and-out profile and his jumping can be an issue; however, he did well to rally for a cosy win after a slow jump at the final fence on his reappearance at Newbury (extended 2m6f, good to soft) in November, and the manner in which he stayed on for a fair sixth at Ascot (3m, good) last month suggests today's extra yardage will be a positive; interesting. |

13th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Displayed huge improvement when sauntering to 12l win at Doncaster (2m, good) in December and put two lesser efforts behind him when staying-on third at Wincanton (2m5f, good to soft) last month; still unexposed over this trip and may benefit from the addition of cheekpieces. |

16th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 82y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Appeared to display huge improvement when sauntering to 12l win at Doncaster (2m, good) in December; subsequent defeat in major handicap is not viewed harshly but he looked out of sorts at Stratford last month and it's hard to know what to expect from him here. |

17th Nov 2024 Good 3m 3f 71y Class 1 |
10st 3lb |
Front-runner who reappeared with a rallying second at Exeter (3m, good to soft) last month and he's back in cheekpieces today, in which he showed improved form earlier this year (including 10l win at Newbury); only seven and there's every chance this trip will be within range; one to consider. |

Not an instant success over fences last season but won by 10l in first-time cheekpieces at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) in January and signed off with creditable fourth in valuable novices' handicap at Ayr (3m, soft) in April; respected. |

Scored twice over fences early last year (once on heavy); 0-10 over hurdles but runner-up in eight of those, including at Warwick (3m2f, soft) on latest start when he blundered at the final flight but looked booked for second anyway; this race looks too tough. |
