27th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Three wins from 2m-2m3f last season (good/soft); below his last winning mark but needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Aintree ten days ago. |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Six-time chase winner, the last twice off today's mark; probably not ideally suited by heavy ground when respectable fifth in series final at Carlisle (2m4f) last month but others appeal more all the same. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won twice in blinkers on good ground last summer (2m/2m1f) but was given a break after two disappointing runs in the autumn and made a low-key return without blinkers last month; has blinkers back on today but needs to get back in the groove. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Two wins last summer (2m/2m1f, good), the latest off just a 1lb lower mark; form has dipped in his last two races, at Cheltenham and then Carlisle where he should have run better; absent since November. |
12/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Perked up by blinkers this summer, winning twice, but faded into third after setting the pace in run-of-the-mill Worcester handicap (2m, good) last month and is patently not the force of old. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Regressive 11yo; returned from layoff with two disappointing runs in February and absent for another 101 days since but will be favoured by the forecast rain here and is too well handicapped to rule out. |
12/1 |

1st Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
High-class hurdler in his prime but it's now over three years since his latest win; ended last season with some very respectable efforts and resumes on a tempting mark but younger rivals appeal more all the same; swaps blinkers for refitted cheekpieces. |
14/1 |
