25th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Enhanced his good record here when inheriting first place over 3m5f in May (same mark) and the drop back to 2m5f found him out when fourth to Charlie Uberalles two months ago; this race is a better fit; third 12 months ago on heavy ground. |

Three-time course winner, most recently when awarded 3m5f veterans' chase here (good to soft; second past the post) last month; versatile regarding ground but would appeal more over further than 2m5f. |

Five-time chase winner who was runner-up in that discipline last time, and he won his last race over hurdles at Cartmel in August (2m6f, good); well treated in relation to chase mark and William Maggs also takes off 5lb. |

Sound-surface wins in another C&D 0-120, a Cartmel hurdle and a Witton Castle open point since May; never travelling at Uttoxeter latest (first loss under Brian Hughes), but is one proven capable of bouncing back. |

Won three chases in the spring (2m4f-3m) and has posted some good efforts in defeat since; he simply didn't jump well enough when upped to 3m6f four weeks ago but he can bounce back if he gets into a better rhythm here. |

28th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
0-10 over fences; ran well for a long way when third in C&D hunter chase (soft; first-time visor) last month and should be okay on today's faster ground but probably needs a better performance in this handicap. |

29th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Pulled up in heavy-ground marathon at Bangor in February and now 0-9 as a handicap chaser but his fifth at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) two starts ago was respectable; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor and has the services of James King for hunter chase debut; could be dangerous at this level. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
No longer the force of old and very inconsistent nowadays but battled well for narrow C&D (soft) win over Judicial Review last month, his fifth course success; also suited by good ground and recent 4lb rise is manageable if he's in the right mood again. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |

Four course wins, the latest over C&D in summer 2023; very much on the downgrade now, though, and never really looked dangerous when plugging on for modest third here (3m1f, good) on Saturday. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

29th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |

Scored at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in May, his second start for James Owen, and ran big race when clear second to thriving opponent at Cartmel (3m1f, soft) in June; needs to bounce back from last month's duff effort at Market Rasen but still features prominently in calculations. |

Looked a hard ride when second at Bangor (3m, good) but travelled sweeter with the blinkers back on at Cartmel (3m1f, soft) and just missed out; nudged up another 3lb but has to be respected. |

Victory in a Parham open match last weekend took his score in points to 5-8; diminishing returns in hunter chases, and well held behind Arthur's Sixpence at Newbury in March (3m, good to soft), albeit on going which wouldn't have suited as well as tonight's projected good. |

Former Irish pointer/hunter chaser; looked badly out of sorts in handicap chases for new stable last season (four starts) and it takes a big leap of faith to support him on this hurdle debut; had wind op last month; swaps visor for refitted blinkers. |
