24th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Had a career-low jumps mark when winning at Aintree (3m, soft) in November; that was a doughty performance but he reverted to heavy defeats on both starts since; has been wearing cheekpieces but now tries a visor; 7lb claimer is recruited. |

13th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Well down the weights and took advantage with Aintree win (3m, soft) in November; that was a doughty performance but he reverted to a heavy defeat when back up 5lb at Newbury three weeks later; needs more like the novice form he showed in the 2021-22 season. |

12th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Lightly raced since Welsh Grand National success in 2021 but a commendable third in this season's edition of that race (3m6f, soft) in December and again ran very well at Haydock (3m1f, soft) in January; drying ground will reduce his appeal but he has possibilities if he enjoys this new test. |

18th Jan 2025 Heavy 3m 1f 125y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Won the Welsh National (3m6f, soft) in 2021 and the Warwick Classic (3m5f, heavy) in 2023; now 12 but he was a fine third in the Welsh National (3m6f, soft) three weeks ago and his surplus stamina may be no bad thing today; possible player if this doesn't come too soon after his hard Chepstow race. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Inconsistent but he won at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last July and returned from a break with a close third here (2m5f, soft) on Boxing Day, staying on nicely; he's fine at this trip; not his fault when unseating mid-race at Haydock last month; could be involved. |

Inconsistent but he won at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last July and returned from a break with a close third at Wetherby (2m5f, soft) on Boxing Day, staying on nicely; he'll be fine now back up in trip and could be involved. |

26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 149y Class 3 |

Returned to form to win at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July and again ran well when fourth there (2m4f, good) last month; stays this far and is effective on soft ground; goes well for Benjamin Macey, with form figures of 29214, and he could have a part to play. |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 100y |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Pulled up at Warwick in January last time but was in pretty good heart towards the end of last year and he's now 1lb lower than when winning at Haydock (3m, good) last March; also handles soft; capable of going well. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |

Only 1lb higher than for his Haydock win over a similar trip last March; does have a lot of weight though and was only fifth at Haydock last time, finishing just behind Gwennie May Star. |

Not well handicapped but arrives here after a 3l second of eight at Uttoxeter when tried in cheekpieces (2m7f, good); no reason why he won't be involved once more. |

Easy winner of a four-runner handicap off this mark at Catterick in February (3m1f, heavy); not run quite as well since; usually needs a race after a break. |

2023 and 2024 did not go at all well until he won by a short head at Wincanton (extended 3m2f) in October last year; the fences have got in the way on both starts since and he's not the percentage call, but his old peak chase form was smart; blinkered first time. |

Had struggled after returning from a long absence but last time was a bit better and Sean Bowen now takes over; could be interesting, for all that he's not shone around here in the past. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

C&D winner who is well treated on his old form but he had a long spell on the sidelines before struggling at big prices in both runs this winter; hard to know how much ability remains and he has plenty to prove. |

Modest effort in small field on return from lengthy absence last time, albeit seeming to need the run; remains well treated on best form but needs to prove he retains that ability. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
12yo who is without a win since December 2023 but he ran his best race for some time when fourth at Carlisle (3m2f, soft) in November and when seventh at Ayr last time he was back up in grade; his mark continues to fall and this front-runner, who has won here, could make a bold bid. |
