20th Apr 2023 Good 2m 0f 62y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Two wins this season, by a distance at Warwick in November (2m4f, good to soft) and last time when making all for a much narrower verdict at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft); long time since she raced over this short a distance but she's a front-runner who jumps well. |

Easy winner at Warwick in November (2m4f, good to soft) and fair third at Doncaster last time (2m3f, good); a possible. |

3rd Mar 2023 Good 2m 3f 31y Class 4 |

10yo who can be inconsistent but she easily made all at Warwick (2m4f, good to soft) last November and bounced back from her Cheltenham flop with a fair fourth here (3m, good) in January; could benefit from this drop back in distance and she's one to consider. |

20th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Well treated on some old form but he returned after a long absence with a pulled-up effort over C&D (soft) last month; was a market springer in that race but he was in trouble some way out and is hard to recommend after that heavy defeat. |
9/1 |

6th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Not at his best in autumn 2022 and absent since; however, he's well treated on his old form and his stable can ready one after an absence; one to watch in the betting on this return to action. |

2nd 3 |
1st Nov 2022 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Two wins over hurdles but last year's improvement came at about 3m and he didn't show a lot at Uttoxeter a month ago on his return from 303 days away; even if he takes to fences (0-2 in points), others might be too sharp around here. |

High-mileage veteran who looked out of sorts on his final two appearances in 2024; too well handicapped to rule out but younger rivals appeal more; blinkers refitted. |

5th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 162y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
On a losing run and in difficulties in three of his last four starts, including behind School For Scandal over C&D in October and at Fakenham 16 days ago; has been wearing headgear but just a tongue-tie today; work cut out. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Gained both chase wins three years ago; dropped 8lb since last run and looks attractively treated on best form but is returning from 16-month layoff; the betting may offer further guidance. |

25th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |

Solid spell culminated in a second-place finish off 8lb higher in this contest 12 months ago (good to soft); less consistent since but has a fighting chance provided he's back in top form. |

22nd Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Fair form when second in a couple of 2m maiden hurdles last season; had wind surgery before the first of his three chases this season; below par in two of those but if repeating his Ludlow effort (2m4f, good to soft; penultimate start) he'd have claims; cheekpieces now accompany tongue-tie. |
9/2 |

31st Dec 2022 Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Didn't hang about over hurdles; hasn't looked a natural over fences but he still ran well to be only 8l away in a 2m4f Ludlow handicap a month ago; dropping back to 2m at a track where the fences come up fast might test him. |
14/1 |

30th Nov 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Just five starts and twice runner-up over hurdles at the end of last year; tailed off on this month's chasing debut at Warwick (11-4), after wind surgery and nine months off; even allowing for that experience being needed, it takes a leap of faith to offer support. |

All seven wins (five chasing) on good or quicker ground; however, had his conditions when pulled up after a 62-day break at Hereford and now returns from a similar one. |
