13th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Veteran who has finished second a few times on turf this season, without being particularly consistent; scored twice over C&D in December 2021 but is harder to fancy on his 2022 AW form. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground; never involved on her C&D reappearance last month, but she should be sharper this time and is now 11lb lower than for her win here last summer; could be dangerous if she gets a good pace and some luck. |
20/1 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground and finished second in this on her first start of 2023; 0-10 since her last win in July, however, and she was 50-1 when suffering big defeat on her reappearance in this race last year; nothing wrong with this mark if she is ready to roll. |

5th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Over two years since the last of his four wins, all of which have come at Wolverhampton; he is effective here too though and has run some good races in defeat since joining Mick Appleby; should run his race and he is not discounted with a cheekpiece experiment quickly aborted. |

22nd Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Opened her account with a 4l success in C&D classified event ten days ago, then ran well in a handicap here on Friday; in-form mare who enters calculations, assuming she turns out quickly. |

Ten-race maiden who didn't help herself with a tardy start when beaten nearly 7l into fifth of 11 behind Calcutta Dream at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) nine days ago; 5lb better off, but still hard to see her reversing the form. |

Very opposable on the balance of his chase form, especially from 7lb out of the weights. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles but has very shaky record over fences in recent years; pulled up at Cartmel one month ago and now 0-13 in this sphere; 2lb wrong today; too risky. |
25/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles; 0-12 over fences and fell at his final attempt; others appeal more from 2lb out of the weights. |
