4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
11yo who won this race in 2023 (good to soft) and was third in the last two runnings (good); ended last season in good form, coming second at Perth (2m4f, good) in April, and could have a part to play on his return. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
11yo who snapped a losing sequence at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month and it was a stronger race than this in which he was fourth of 11 at Haydock (2m4f, good) last Wednesday; every chance he'll be in the mix. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Veteran who made his name as a two-miler and the slow pace helped when making his first foray over 3m a successful one at Carlisle (good to soft; effective on good); solid second the run before over 2m4f but a 5lb rise for last time could be troublesome. |

11st 10lb |
Ended last year with below-par C&D run (bled from the nose) and was beaten when falling over 2m4f here on New Year's Day; needs to get back in the groove but has very good chasing strike-rate (7-25) and his current mark is workable. |

11st 12lb |
Has a good record here but all his best days have been over shorter distances and, now an 11yo, he's leaving it late to prove his worth over this far. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up three times in a row in February-April, including in a quite valuable series final at Carlisle (2m4f, good) and when losing out only narrowly to Half Shot at Kelso (2m7f, good); subsequent 22l defeat over C&D came in a stronger race than this; one to consider. |
9/1 |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
After dropping down the weights he's run really well to finish second on his last three starts (2m4f/2m7f, good/good to soft); edging back up the handicap but every chance he'll be thereabouts once more. |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
An 11yo now who isn't as good as he was and has predictably lost some of his old speed; hasn't been running badly in handicaps at about this trip but looks vulnerable. |
8/1 |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
On a good mark but an 11yo now and has lost some of his old zip; ran okay at Uttoxeter last time but got outpaced when it mattered and was never threatening; what will help here is the likelihood of a good pace and some rain; respected. |
10/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
An 11yo now and, in first-time cheekpieces, finished well behind at Ayr in a race he had done well in previously; this wouldn't be so demanding and his penultimate effort was quite encouraging; by no means ruled out. |
