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. |

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. |

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. |

Patchy profile since last win over a year ago and hard to envisage a return to form from so far out of the weights. |

6th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Minor honours on all three runs for new stable this July/September, over fences at 3m2f, 2m7f and 2m4f; cheekpieces were enlisted last time; should be seriously involved again. |
4/1 |

3rd 3 |
24th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Two good runs for new stable this summer, the latter when keeping-on second at Worcester (2m7f, good; also has form on soft) 23 days ago; drops back in trip with cheekpieces enlisted; leading contender. |
11/4 |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
His two wins over fences for Rose Dobbin were in 2022; down the weights and had some respectable runs last winter, before his £6,000 sale in May and another respectable show in fourth of 12 at Uttoxeter (favourite) on stable debut in July when it looked as if 3m2f stretched him; back down in trip and on the shortlist. |

19th Jul 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Only beaten a short head on stable debut at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) in March but hard to trust on what he's done since; tongue-tie now left off. |

2nd Jul 2023 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Lightly raced 6yo; lost out only by a short head on stable debut at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) in March but two very disappointing runs have followed and he now has a point to prove. |
14/1 |

15th May 2023 Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who lost out only by a short head on stable debut at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) in March; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort last month but should be fine over today's longer trip and enters calculations. |
7/1 |
