27th Nov 2022 Good To Firm 2m 4f 25y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Respectable second at Kempton (2m2f) six weeks ago and holds every chance of going one better, having slipped back to same mark as for his easy success at same venue (2m4f, good; albeit benefited from a pace collapse) last November; has form at this course. |

27th Nov 2022 Good To Firm 2m 4f 25y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Appeared to need the run and/or failed to stay 3m1f in veterans' chase at Aintree (back from lengthy absence) five weeks ago; has possibilities back down in distance, provided he retains sufficient ability; well treated on best form over hurdles and fences. |

9th Dec 2022 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Tough sort who won four handicaps at around 2m5f (good) between May-July but he's generally struggled since last success and was a remote last of three at Leicester last time; takes a big drop back in grade but he's never won over this far and others are preferred. |

27th Nov 2022 Good To Firm 2m 4f 25y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Tough sort having scored four times during a very busy 2022 (has raced 23 times this year); however, has proved far from consistent since the last success; receives plenty of weight from his rivals, having dropped to a handy mark, but not sure what to expect. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Placed three times during the summer (2m3f-2m7f, good) but his final run was most disappointing; off new career-low mark but a 12yo now and he holds no secrets. |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Veteran who last won in 2022 but has come down the weights and took third in three of his last four starts, latest when running on from off the pace over C&D 11 days ago; has been tried over this sort of trip on only his last two outings and that latest run showed there's something to build on. |
