1st Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 7f 98y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Has never tried this sort of trip with heavy ground but it could help; however, pulled up in this race in 2023 on his only visit to Sandown, went off the boil last January-May and although there's been a partial revival since, he needs better to take this warm race; 5lb claimer enlisted. |

29th Nov 2024 Soft 3m 0f 52y Class 1 |

Gradually finding his form this term; now 0-7 for current yard and appears to have the worst chance at the weights in this field but could perform well, having finished 2l third in this race last year. |

7th Apr 2024 Heavy 3m 6f 153y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Well suited by a slog in the mud and returned to form with keeping-on second in West Wales National at Ffos Las (3m4f, heavy) a week ago; Joe Anderson claims a useful 5lb today; major player if in the right mood again. |

19th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Only 2lb higher than for his 3m win at Doncaster in December; inconsistent and last two efforts were nowhere near his best, but perhaps blinkers will do something for him (good and bad when tried in cheekpieces). |
25/1 |

18th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Up and down this season and finished tailed off when favourite for a four-runner 3m handicap at Doncaster a month ago; this company is warmer than he's accustomed to and probably placed at best. |

3rd 3 |
9th Feb 2023 Good 3m 0f 84y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Reappeared with promising second on handicap debut at Ayr (3m, good to soft) in October and bounced back from lesser run at Carlisle for a hard-fought win over this C&D (good) in December; this lightly raced 7yo could have more to offer for his good yard and is on the shortlist up 4lb. |

9th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Arrives on a long losing run but he wasn't disgraced when seventh of 15 over C&D 23 days ago; he's one to consider off an easing mark. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
No rules win since October 2020; took a firm step back in the right direction when keeping on into fourth over 2m4f here (good) last month; 2lb lower dropping into a 0-105; tempting back at 3m. |

1st Dec 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 52y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Well held when fifth in this race in 2021 and 2022; C&D third when last seen in March but he was way behind the first two and he's now failed to win since New Year's Day 2020, despite his move down the weights. |

1st Jun 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Goes well here as both a C&D winner and also a winner over 2m4f last time out; 3lb rise and the return to shorter will be a test for him but he's shown before that he can string a series of wins together. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
12yo who is without a win since December 2023 but he ran his best race for some time when fourth at Carlisle (3m2f, soft) in November and when seventh at Ayr last time he was back up in grade; his mark continues to fall and this front-runner, who has won here, could make a bold bid. |
