11st 4lb |
Failed to win during fairly light campaign last season but was placed on consecutive 2m7f starts at Musselburgh (good to soft/soft) in February and those efforts bring him into the equation here. |

Won twice here last season (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft) and fair third over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago when about 3l behind the runner-up Captain Quint; might not be far away. |

18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won C&D handicap (good) last September but her form cooled during the winter and she was pulled up at Carlisle (2m5f, good to soft) on her return last month; chase record now stands at 1-9 and she needs to turn things around; cheekpieces added. |

8th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Won a handicap at Perth (2m4f, good) last September and she went very close at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) next time but her form has cooled in last two runs; chase record now stands at 1-8 and she needs to get back near her best after a break. |

Has taken well to chasing, winning at Perth in September (2m4f, good) and creditable runs both starts since; a contender. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won a match race on chasing debut in October but two underwhelming runs followed in November and he was pulled up in April, after a break; comes here with a point to prove but the return to good ground is a big plus. |

12th May 2023 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

Winner over hurdles here, but only success over fences was in two-runner event at Wetherby in October (2m5f, good); poor efforts since; others stronger. |

14th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Won on October's chasing debut at Wetherby (2m5f, good) but that was in a match and he was well held in his final two runs last year; still has potential in this sphere but he needs to step up again after 147 days off; stablemate of Mister Bells. |

24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Modest 27-race maiden under both codes and he seemed to have stamina issues when stepped up to 2m4f at Musselburgh last time; makes no appeal. |

16th Nov 2022 Good To Soft 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Didn't stay the extended 2m4f at Musselburgh latest, that defeat taking his record to 0-27; not much further out of the weights this time than last and back at a more suitable trip, but still overlooked; visor added. |

2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Two fair efforts since being stepped up to 3m on last two starts, last time finishing nearly 8l fourth over C&D to stable companion Castletown (6lb worse off); each-way chance. |
5/1 |

6th Jul 2023 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Chase wins over 2m here and 2m4f at Newcastle; this longer trip wasn't an issue when runner-up at Hexham (good) a month ago and he may have more to offer as a stayer. |
4/1 |

2nd 3 |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Collected two small-field chase wins last season, the latter off today's mark at Newcastle (2m4f, good) in November; comes here after respectable fourth at Perth (2m4f, good) last month; a possible if suited by today's step up in trip. |
