3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
On a fairly tough mark but otherwise has plenty in his favour and ran a solid second over C&D last time; every chance. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Below par when last seen in August but ran pretty well in his previous two races, including here; has plenty in his favour, other than a tough enough mark. |

Two solid placed efforts since returning from a break, latest when a 7.25l third at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm; Magic Seven second) last month; should give another good account though he remains vulnerable off this sort of mark. |

Has taken time to come to hand since returning from a long absence this year but built on some better recent efforts with a hard-fought win (first over obstacles) at Stratford (2m3f, good) last month; leading player back up 3lb. |

Usually saves his best for Sedgefield, where he won over fences in April (subsequent fourth was over hurdles); two visits here has produced a second place; no surprise to see him run well. |

Hurdle (including C&D) and chase winner here and won a chase over the equivalent trip here latest, when on the same mark; well treated if able to translate that form back to this sphere; big player. |

7th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Wins have come over shorter round easy, undulating courses and he's regressed in recent times; it's been the best part of two years since he ran well on turf and he's some way down the pecking order. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Last win came in December 2024 off 6lb higher; hasn't been firing on all cylinders recently but is down to a career-low mark and cannot dismiss. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Returned from three-month break with respectable fourth here (2m3f, soft) in March last time and will be fine over this longer trip, but he's not really been firing on all cylinders since last summer; others appeal more. |
14/1 |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Seemingly aided by addition of cheekpieces when making the frame three consecutive times (2m7f-3m) towards end of last year but still wasn't really firing on all cylinders; should be fine over this shorter trip but the headgear is missing today and he needs to have been refreshed by his three-month break. |

0-10 over fences; gave good account when fourth at Hereford (2m, good) in November but his overall record is not persuasive, and he was safely held on latest outing two months ago. |

Winning pointer; only modest form on handicap/chase debut, beaten 44l at Stratford (2m1f, good) in June; should be suited by the step back up in trip with cheekpieces returning; others have more pressing claims. |

Exposed pointer, winner of a maiden in April 2023 (3m, good to soft); hasn't built on that and was well beaten at Ffos Las back over hurdles on stable debut last time (2m6f, good to soft); best watched for now. |

After a break he's been tailed off behind Wee Alki and here on Monday faded into sixth over 2m6f; others preferred. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Made all over 2m1f here (good) last July and came second here on next two outings (2m6f/3m1f); probably needed recent reappearance run and has a big role to play if back on song. |
5/1 |

12th 3 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |

Three sound efforts on last three starts last summer (good/soft), winning over 2m1f at Cartmel and finishing creditable second over 3m there on final start; off for 252 days and likely to be better for the run. |
