9th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Scored over fences here in November but below that form since, going too freely in cheekpieces when fifth of eight back hurdling at Bangor in March; he needs to bounce back. |

11st 11lb |
Dual chase winner in the autumn (2m1f/2m) but seems to have lost his way a bit in recent weeks; switches back to hurdling on a workable mark but needs a boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

16th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won over fences at Ludlow in November (2m, good to soft) but was well held at Hereford on his final run in that discipline and wasn't great back on the AW 19 days ago; has two wins to his name over hurdles but needs to get back on track. |

28th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Fairly useful form over fences in recent months, including a 2m Ludlow win in November; beaten a long way in three novice events on the Flat but his jumps ability suggests he could be competitive from a modest opening mark in this sphere. |

7th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Returned to form with an easy win under Peter Summers when back over fences at Leicester (2m, soft) last month; that was a first chase victory at the 11th attempt and she beat only two rivals, but it's hard to knock that performance otherwise and a 4lb rise isn't harsh. |

10th Jan 2024 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Soundly beaten over hurdles last month and evidently not as good as she was but began this season with two very respectable chase runs (one in a Listed race) and is sure to appreciate today's ease in grade; versatile regarding ground; must be considered. |
7/2 |

6th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Returned to hurdles for a dominant 10l success at Chepstow in January (soft) off only a 3lb lower mark but lost her way a little afterwards; following wind surgery she seems back in good order judged on recent chase efforts (0-10 compared with 4-16 hurdling) and has plenty in her favour back in this discipline; should give it a good go from the front. |

Still to get his head in front this term and he made mistakes when trailing in last of eight in 2m5f Hereford handicap chase 20 days ago; others appeal more. |

Won this last year (good to soft) and has run well in defeat on two of his last three starts, most recently at Huntingdon (2m7f, soft) this month; he's a strong candidate today. |

Won two small-field points in the spring and returned to racing under rules with three respectable runs under Osian Radford this summer/autumn; probably won't be far away but others appeal more all the same. |
