21st Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Not firing on all cylinders during fairly light campaign last season but looked back in good nick when third at Fakenham (2m5f, good) last month; runs this track well and remains well handicapped; helps to give Laura Morgan a good hand in this race. |

2nd Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Good-ground specialist who has mixed hurdling with chasing in recent years; not firing on all cylinders in early part of last season and made low-key return (over hurdles) in April; others have less to prove. |

Bumper/hurdle/chase winner; hasn't got himself together in four runs after a lengthy break, in a hurdle and three chases (all handicaps); others have more pressing claims. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Safely held in last two chases but beat Secret Trix by 4l to score at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) on latest hurdling start in June and is now only 2lb above that mark; also suited by this track; can make his presence felt. |
7/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
All three chase wins have been over C&D, including in this equivalent race in 2023; equally effective over hurdles with three wins, the most recent at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last month; last of five finishers when back over fences at Cartmel (3m1f, good) last time but cannot be dismissed around here. |
12/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
All good since joining Stuart Edmonds and deserved his 2m7f win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (by 4l; good); up 4lb for this return to fences but he's a three-time winner in this discipline. |

prominent, niggled along when not fluent 2 out, pushed along after 2 out, ridden and weakened quickly approaching last (trainer said, regarding the poor form shown, that the gelding had a breathing problem) |
