9th Jul 2023 Good 3m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Front-runner who stays well; thrown in today if judged even on the form shown on his first two starts last season (one on good); however, easily his best show in hunter chases since came when second at Carlisle in March (3m, heavy) and such a poor show at Cartmel last time has to be a major concern. |

Best hunter chase run when creditable second at Carlisle in March (3m, heavy); well beaten in the Aintree Foxhunters next time; each-way chance. |

11st 12lb |
Won Sandown's big end-of-season finale in 2018 and took two further handicaps in 2020; nearly won a hunter chase at Carlisle in March but a weaker one than this, and he's always been a more potent force going right-handed. |

31st Dec 2022 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Smart staying chaser in 2018-19; ended a long losing run to take a hunter chase in May and added a handicap in November, both four-runner races at Huntingdon on good ground (acts on heavy); creditable third at Sandown latest but this race demands a good deal more. |

2nd Dec 2022 Good To Soft 3m 0f 37y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Smart staying chaser in 2018-19; ended a long losing run at Huntingdon (hunter) in May and he went in again there (2m7f, good) three weeks ago; nudged back up 4lb but he's still well treated on old form and his stable's purple patch shows no sign of coming to an end; has to be respected. |

11st 10lb |
Won 3m chase at Ffos Las for Nicky Henderson last March (good to soft) but out of sorts in various aids for new connections since December; tongue-tie refitted and first-time blinkers added; risky. |

Won off a 5lb higher mark last spring for Nicky Henderson; however, form for current yard (three attempts) is far from convincing; change of headgear needs to spark a revival. |

12st 5lb |
This race was one of two wins in military races here last season, both of them under Charlie O'Shea; disappointed last time but was also pulled up prior to his success 12 months ago, and provided he takes to blinkers (replacing usual cheekpieces) he should threaten once more. |

2nd Dec 2022 Good To Soft 3m 0f 37y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Very safe jumper (has never fallen) and he landed a double in military races over this C&D (soft/good to soft) early in the year; below par when last seen in May but no surprise if he bounces back after a break; runner-up in this race last season under Ella Herbison. |

12st 0lb |
Won a high-profile staying chase at Wincanton (3m1f, good) in autumn 2021 but has lost his way and was beaten 28l on his return to hurdles at Warwick (3m2f); dropped further in class here but with questions to answer right now. |
