29th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Four chase wins, the latest at Leicester last December (four ran); only seen once since, when running poorly at Wincanton last month; good ground ideal and decent claims if that latest effort is overlooked. |

Had run well here on a previous visit and he showed his liking for this course when winning here four weeks ago (good to firm; all other wins on good); looks set for another good effort. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 59y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four chase wins, the latest off today's mark in this race a year ago (good ground); absent since some below-par efforts on slower-than-ideal ground towards end of 2025 and not getting any younger but booking of Sean Bowen drops strong hint he'll be primed for a bold defence. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Not the force of old but won at Fakenham (2m, good) in June off 4lb lower and has run with credit on all four starts since; should run his usual honest race. |
12/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Only ever a winner between April and July, but one of only two previous visits here netted him a C&D success off 15lb higher and he's got the trip and ground that suit once again; certainly respected. |

4th Nov 2022 Good 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Wearing a first-time tongue-tie when winning over fences at Stratford in August but not a lot since (in just cheekpieces last three runs), with his third here last month a remote one; he has at least won over hurdles. |
25/1 |

31st Oct 2022 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Got back in the groove with a tongue-tie added when scoring over fences at Stratford (2m1f, good) in August but he's not come close to that form in four runs since; back on last winning mark now but was beaten 23l at Exeter last time and he needs a major upturn in form. |

Approaching two years since he last showed any form to speak of, and has a lot to prove from 9lb out of the weights this time. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Caused 150-1 shock in 3m3f Stratford marathon in spring 2024 but that remains his only win from 62 career starts; in poor form this year and 7lb wrong here; look elsewhere. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

24th Nov 2022 Good 2m 2f 40y Class 5 |

His runner-up effort at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) in July came in a two-finisher race and he could only manage fifth of 11 at Southwell eight weeks ago; mark has eased another 2lb but it's not enough to tempt. |

Four-time hurdle winner on good ground (once over C&D) but not since 2021; not seen since down-the-field finish in basement-grade AW race in January and makes very limited appeal from 4lb out of the weights here. |
