16th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Thorough stayer who made all to win by 14l over C&D (soft) three weeks ago and is now 7-39 over fences; this is more competitive than the races he's used to contesting, though, and he probably doesn't have much margin for error after recent 5lb rise. |

Prominent racer who won at Hexham in December (3m, heavy) and at Catterick in January (3m1f, soft); stiffer task here but visor back on; should go well again. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won three times over 3m2f here (always on good ground) during productive campaign last season; needs career-best performance to overcome this rise in grade but returns here after respectable fourth over today's trip at Cartmel (good) last month. |
9/2 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Ended last season with two hard-fought wins at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) and arguably ran better than bare form suggests when well-held fourth at Bangor (3m, good) in June but current mark demands a career-best performance and today's drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

4th 5 |
21st Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Thriving over Sedgefield's extended 3m2f latterly, needing every yard of it last time (good) in order to complete a double; new career-high mark asks a question, and the return to 3m isn't certain to suit. |

12st 0lb |
0-7 over hurdles and the same over fences but he's been a consistent sort for Tom Gretton, including a big run from out of the handicap in the Sussex National at Plumpton (3m4f, soft) last time; tongue tied on last two outings; needs each-way respect on this debut for new yard. |

28th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
12yo who is winless since March 2022 and is 5lb out of the handicap today; however, he's a three-time C&D winner who was a fair third of six over C&D (soft) last time, and holds each-way claims in a race lacking depth. |

29th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
12yo who has regressed and struggled at Catterick the last twice; however, this three-time C&D winner ran fairly well over C&D in November on his reappearance, and could stage a revival now back here off 12lb lower. |

29th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
On a reduced mark and he took a step back in the right direction when 14l second to well-treated winner at Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft) in November; however, he weakened quickly over 3m1f at Catterick (soft) in January so there's a stamina doubt today, and he refused to line up on his latest intended start (withdrawn; 3-1 at the time); a hood is added. |

2nd Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 51y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Dual course winner; non-stayer over 3m1f back here last week; only a modest fifth in this contest 12 months ago but is 18lb lower this time; attractively handicapped. |

24th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |

Remains below his best despite finishing runner-up over 2m5f at Market Rasen (good to soft) when ultimately no match for the winner; all his best form is over shorter distances than this; cheekpieces added. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 210y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Completed hat-trick when winning here (2m5f, soft) in March 2024; lightly raced since and he got back on the scoresheet at Sedgefield (2m3f, good to soft) three weeks ago; he can give another good account up 4lb. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Very lightly raced since completing a hat-trick as a novice chaser two seasons ago; his Sedgefield form (2m5f) this season has received a few boosts, and latest effort suggests this drop back in trip may prove ideal; enters calculations. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
7yo who won off 2lb higher at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) last summer; has not gone on from that in only four runs since but he ran well for a long way at Fontwell (3m2f) last month and has claims if he can build on that. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Scored at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) off this mark in July last year, but well held following ten-month break when fifth of seven finishers at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; has work to do. |
14/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Pulled up at Hereford (3m1f, good) last October and absent since; however, he won at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) last July and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the betting on his return; may want slow ground. |

25th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Back over hurdles for her last three races (2m4f-3m2f) and found just one too good in the penultimate one; had no excuses when beaten 24l in the latest and she has a modest strike-rate. |
7/1 |

5th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Better known as a chaser now; did not see out 3m2f on May's hurdling return at Stratford and appreciated the return to shorter when a front-running second at Southwell (2m4f, good) latest; back up 3lb but solid claims. |
2/1 |

11th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Better known as a chaser now; did not see out 3m2f on last month's hurdling return at Stratford but put in a pretty good front-running shift there and today's drop back in trip looks the right move; on a good mark; no surprise if she features. |

10st 2lb |
Won at 40-1 at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) in March 2023 off 2lb higher mark; no worthwhile form since, including last two runs over fences; returns from ten-month layoff and hard to enthuse over. |
