25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces (retained) when very respectable third at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) this month but has become too inconsistent to rely upon. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
5-32 over hurdles (2m-3m2f), including on good to firm; first run back from a break in April was encouraging but he's gone backwards since and has to be forgiven a poor effort latest; on a fair mark if first-time cheekpieces help. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Possible to say he's been temptingly handicapped for a while now, but dropping into a 0-110 here for just the second time; some hope if getting a less contested lead than last time (C&D), which isn't a given. |

24th Aug 2023 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Neither 3m2f trip nor familiar assertive tactics to blame when dropping out quickly on last month's chasing debut at Newton Abbot (beaten 28l); needs to jump better, but too early to write off; down a useful 6lb. |
9/4 |

23rd Jul 2023 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Had rather mixed record over hurdles but won by 16l here (3m2f, good) in the autumn and returned from layoff with very respectable run over similar trip at Stratford last month; has possibilities if she takes well to chasing but may be reliant on good ground. |

2nd 5 |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Looked good when winning by 16l at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last September and is still well handicapped on older form, but she has a very mixed record and this is her first run since November. |

9th Oct 2023 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Two fairly good runs for new stable this season, more recently when staying-on third at Worcester (2m4f, good to soft) six weeks ago; competes off same mark here and the longer trip will suit; shortlisted. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
29th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Infrequent winner (3-31) formerly trained by Jonjo O'Neill; only 3-1 for stable debut in a 3m2f handicap hurdle at Stratford three months ago (after 154 days away) but ran a laboured race in finishing third of the four runners; reservations despite this trip being a better fit. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Infrequent winner (3-30); bang there at Leicester (2m4f, soft) and perhaps failed to stay 3m2f on his final run for Jonjo O'Neill; on a decent mark if his new trainer can get him going again. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Quirky customer who is often reluctant to jump off; won at Stratford (3m2f, good) in April, after a break, and is now back on the same mark, but recent efforts were below that level and he's never easy to predict. |
16/1 |

24th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Has struggled to recapture the form that saw him successful at Stratford (3m2f, good) off 2lb lower in April; not one to dismiss lightly but recent efforts temper enthusiasm. |

Successful in a division of this race in 2021 but that was the middle leg of a hat-trick; not in same form at present, having performed poorly in two runs since Bangor win in October. |
