19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Last win was over 2m3f here in May of last year off 6lb higher; not quite hit the same heights this year and has been finishing his races rather tamely. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in the autumn and has developed a tendency to finish rather weakly but comes here after two respectable 2m4f thirds this spring (cheekpieces added last time) and continues to edge down the weights. |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Dual chase winner who was ridden much closer to the pace than is often the case when very respectable third behind Abingworth at Warwick (2m4f, good) last month; remains on a workable mark and features prominently in calculations; cheekpieces (tried once in early 2024) refitted. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Only 1-13 over fences but is threatening to double his tally, having stayed on for second in the last two of three starts for new yard, latest at Taunton (2m7f, good); possibilities off same mark. |
2/1 |

2nd 1 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Both wins when trained by Alan King; showed little on return from 404-day layoff at Leicester in January for new yard but much better when runner-up at Huntingdon (2m7f, good) last month; runs off the same mark and holds place claims at least. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a four-runner chase at Market Rasen (3m, good; all out) for Alan King in 2024 but didn't match that in three subsequent starts, including over this C&D; suffered a big defeat on his stable debut in January, when coming back from a 404-day absence, but was a little weak in the market that day so maybe better can be expected this time; career-low mark. |

23rd Oct 2024 Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Yet to add to his chase win in January 2023 but was in pretty good form when last seen in the spring; held share of the lead at final fence before fading into fourth at Warwick (2m4f, good) in May and resumes on a 2lb lower mark; also suited by soft/heavy ground; big player if tuned up after break. |
5/1 |

6th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Inconsistent since his win off 3lb higher at Doncaster (2m3f, good) in early 2023; ran well for a long way when third at Southwell last time but was 9l behind God's Own Getaway and that took his chase record to 1-9; others preferred. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
12yo who is inconsistent and has been well below his best on his last two starts; however, before those he won at Catterick (3m1f, good) and he's won here twice in the past; not discounted. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |

21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
12yo whose form can be up and down but he's won on his last two visits to Catterick (soft/good), the latest over C&D last month when beating Mersey Street by a short head; he's a player if backing up that effort. |

23rd Apr 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Seemingly boosted by first-time cheekpieces when winning comfortably over C&D (good to soft) in February; not quite in the same form on either subsequent appearance but still ran respectably at Plumpton last time, and the return to this track is an obvious plus. |

31st Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 3f 164y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won comfortably in the first-time cheekpieces at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) but he ran moderately off a 9lb higher mark next time when perhaps the headgear failed to help a second time; if it was just an off-day then he might bounce back. |

Low-mileage 7yo who launched chasing career with two very encouraging runs in the autumn, the latter a close third at Leicester (2m6f, good to soft); absent since but still considered. |

Showed promise in a light campaign over hurdles last season and he stuck to his task well when an encouraging fourth on his chasing debut at Kempton (2m2f) 29 days ago; this longer trip promises to suit so he's a player. |

Pulled up on both hurdling starts this season and now 0-7 in that sphere; his Irish point win in 2020 offers a ray of hope on this chasing debut but he remains a risky option. |

Showed her first piece of worthwhile form for a while when fourth at Huntingdon (near 2m4f, good) last month, albeit beaten 20l; failed to build on that when soundly beaten behind Karakoram 19 days ago; 6lb out of the handicap and difficult to recommend. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |

This month's Huntingdon fourth (2m4f, good) broke a sequence of non-completions; shaped there as if ready for this longer trip now, though that's not wholly backed up by the pedigree (two point winners aside). |
