10yo who is very lightly raced for his age; won at Southwell (2m4f, good) last May and has also scored on heavy ground; however, he failed to threaten over hurdles then fences last June and this is his first outing since. |

30th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Undefeated in four small-field 3m open points (good/good to firm), the successes around the sharp left-handers at Higham and Fakenham particularly relevant in today's context; can lead but needn't, and won't want for experience of regulation fences (24 chase starts); player. |

Better over fences than hurdles so encouraging to see him win over the smaller obstacles last month before chasing home a hot Bowen-trained favourite over C&D two weeks ago; should go well despite the 3lb rise. |

11st 4lb |
Four wins (2m1f-2m5f) over hurdles; made an encouraging start over fences when 3l third of six at Southwell (3m, soft) last month; solid claims if building on that run with cheekpieces now fitted. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 123y Class 3 |

Three wins from off the pace last season (2m3f-2m5f, good to soft/soft); managed only fifth on last month's return at Haydock (3m, good to soft) but was quite badly hampered by a mid-race faller and made good headway from the rear on the final circuit; might come on for the run; interesting. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
The furthest he's been was 3m2f when he rallied to win from Red Delta in a small field at Doncaster (soft; made most) in November; something amiss next time but he was back on song for second at Carlisle (3m, good to soft; probably effective on good) on latest outing, making it good runs on both his starts in cheekpieces; up 2lb but needs a close look. |

Gained two of his five hurdle wins over C&D and was second off mark 7lb higher than today's when making stable debut in this race a year ago (good); lost his way afterwards, though, and absent since heavy fall in November. |

Five-time winner for Mark Walford who was runner-up at Hexham (2m, good) in May on his stable debut; however, pulled up there on both runs since (2m, good/good to soft) and returns from a break with something to prove. |

Better known as a chaser (5-15); has reverted to hurdles since chase falls last summer; outran his double-figure odds when runner-up at Kempton (2m5f, good) in October; toiled on return from wind surgery subsequently; risky after break. |

Three-time Flat winner (at up to 2m) and he won two handicap hurdles in Ireland, in 2021 and last August; was running just okay on the AW when last seen but Fergal O'Brien might get his competitive juices flowing again. |

Dual winner over 2m on turf is 0-7 on AW, most recently never counting over inadequate 1m2f last month; reduced mark and longer trip play to his strengths so don't rule out. |
