25th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This was the trip for his Taunton win in April (good) and he might have even surpassed that form with his recent seconds over C&D; has the same mark as last time and should have a big say. |

Good second over C&D 16 days ago ridden by Freddie Gingell, keeping on well; could prove vulnerable for the win back up 3lb but with his chase experience he's likely to be thereabouts. |

Won Fontwell maiden (2m1f, good to soft) for Milton Harris last December but he has a mixed record since; wasn't beaten far when third of five at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but he's now 1-11 over hurdles and others are more convincing. |

Temptingly treated on the pick of his handicap form at about 2m on ground not too slow; Taunton last time was disappointing (2m3f, good) but coming back to a sharp 2m will help and could run well if his jumping holds up (can make mistakes). |

Third to Greyval 12 months ago off the same mark; hadn't been at her best this season but came good at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft) and clearly capable of having some say in the outcome. |

Exposed mare who hasn't been quite at her best this season, but is on a good mark (3lb lower than for last win); has an each-way chance. |

Rather hit and miss since her last win (2m4f, good to soft) in October 2024 and she was pulled up at Fakenham eight days ago; back on her last winning mark but has a bit to prove at present. |

9yo who was runner-up at Hexham (2m, good) in May but that was a seller and he didn't jump well before being pulled up on Plumpton reappearance last month; hurdles record is now 1-13 and others are preferred. |

Signed off for his previous yard with competitive efforts in 2m-2m3f handicaps on good or quicker ground; mark hasn't really gone anywhere so he's entitled to be involved if resuming from a break in similar order. |

Didn't run badly when fifth of ten at Fontwell (2m3f, good) this month and continues to slip down the weights but is only 1-12 over hurdles and others in this field have much more appealing profiles. |

Won four-runner maiden (2m, good) a year ago but yet to make an impact in handicaps as a hurdler; didn't run badly when fourth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft; first run back from a second wind operation) last month but failed to build on that at Fakenham last time. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Doing surprisingly well over fences as he's not bred for them; he might just be a shade high in the weights now after his hat-trick bid came up shy in a three-runner race but he must still have some sort of chance on ground he handles. |
3/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 149y Class 4 |

Not bred for fences but has collected small-field chase wins on soft ground at Plumpton (2m1f) and Fontwell (2m2f) in recent weeks, and may be even better suited by the forecast good ground on this hat-trick attempt. |
4/5 |

14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |

Plenty of short-priced defeats to go with his sole win over hurdles; ended a losing run when winning over fences at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) last time, off a 4lb lower mark, but needs to build on that against a couple of progressive rivals. |

Verdict
There are doubts about all of these. POLYPHONIC will need to better his Southwell effort but his new trainer has proved adept at getting the best out of his charges. Sergeant Wilson has the ability and hails from a yard in good form but is unreliable so perhaps Jubilee Gold might prove more of a danger.[Jonathan Neesom]
